its a pro .12 engine and its in a thunder tiger TS4N... the carbs got stuck so i need a new 1 :( its got too hot and swolen :(
 
Look through the paperwork (if you got it ) that came witrh the car, you usually get a guide wfor the engine with a parts list on it.

I'll have a look to se if i have a spare my end in the meantime
 
i have the parts list but its realy hard to get hold of the carb:( i have just phones my close by model shop and there going to find out how much they can get it for but I'm expecting it to be alot from them... there is someone on ebay that has got 1 so i am waiting to c how much he wants for that.
 
define "swollen"

do you have as pic ? if so, post it with an explanation of the problem, it may be something simple that you can correct without needing a new one.
 
its ok now iv sorted it lol... the carb had got hot and the hole the piston thing went into had got smaller so it was sticking... so i have got a drillbit and used the smooth side and turned it in the hole and its slightly made it bigger by about a 10th of a mm lol all good now :D... wel i say all good, when i remove the glow starter when the cars started it cuts out :( do u know why?:\
 
i was doing for a good while and it still cut out... could the revs be tooo low? or the screws need adjusting?
