Hello -
First off, I'm very new to nitro and the Traxxas T Maxx 2.5 is my first nitro truck. I have many electric RC's. Anyways, I have a brand new T Maxx 2.5 and I have the engine broke in. The problem is the idle speed, it's super super high and I can't adjust it down. I've been doing research on this forum and I know of at least one post about this but I don't know what the definitive solution was. With the engine off the ground, it will idle so high that it will almost hit 2nd gear. I *believe* I have a throttle linkage issue. I've adjusted the idle screw, doesn't help. Tried adjusting the low speed needle, no luck. I have the high speed needle set good, just a little rich but not to much. I don't know how to adjust the linkage though. If someone could help I would appreciate it. Links, pictures, explanations would all be helpful. Thank you.
