Spyhunter,
Check the tune, if the motor is running too rich it won't shift. If that is not the problem, you may have to adjust the shift point. Check out this link (http://www.traxxas.com/support/pub/the_complete_tmaxx_guide_part3.htm) about 1/3 of the way down is describes how to adjust the 2-speeds shift point.

the temp is 222-230... where the shift point? i never have done this before...

That link describes how to lower it, or raise it if the truck was shifting too early.

If it has a blue block and gold head it is an OS .15 CVX Hyper. These were awesome mills but have been discontinued for some time now. I have two of them and I love them. If it wont shift at all follow that link to set your shift point. It may be starting off in second gear which may be the problem. Set the tranny to stock settings and adjust it from there.

i didt get the book .. so i dont know the stock setings...

and when i need a piston and sleeve ... will any os 15 piston and sleeve work?

spyhunter, look at the thread posts above. The link to Traxxas' website is provided and you can download the info you need for the shift points from that link. Screw needing the book, all the info you need is in that link.
