traxxas jato 3.3 starting problem

[Fast_Eddie_86]

after waiting out for some good weather and so down time i took my jato out of storage for a little bashing. it was great until i went to refuel and using the ez start the motor spun no problems but it seems like the glow plug isnt getting anything... any ideas??

Ditch the blue wire and use a glow plug igniter for starters.

i just tried that too, and still nothing... idk why but it seems like the engine is just getting loaded up on fuel.

Have you physically checked the plug? Take it out, put it in the ignitor and make sure you have a bright yellow glow.

good call rolex, looks like the plug called it quits. i should have thought to check that before, guess my mind was elsewheres.

threw in a new plug and she ran like a raped ape .
