tmaxx dies

[jedimast5]

I have a tmaxx stock 2.5
i have been running here with very little problems, but sometimes when i make a turn it would just die. but worst off all when i went to the high desert this christmas the it ran fine for about a 2 mins. then it loses power and it barely comes to crawl speed wise. if i keep trying to give it gas eventually after about another 3-4 mins it runs fine. then it repeats.
in the high deser wheather temp is about 40 degrees and altitude is 4000+ ft.
help please!!!!!!!!

What's the engine temps? It could be a bunch of different problems. If it's gettin' hot, richen it up. If tuning doesn't have much of an effect, it probably needs sealed. Don't tune it until it warms up for 5 minutes of so. Being that it runs good at first, it sounds like when the engine expands, it develops a leak. Check around your header and pipe coupler. Engine temps would really help.
