uphill trouble

[nitro_newbie]

ok, I'm assuming this is because i need to tune it better....i have a slight hill in my yard and it has trouble going up it without a running start..and the last time i ran it i got it started and wen i gave it the slightest amount of throttle, it shut off,i eventually got it to run though..give me an tips u have.:

Depending on how much fuel has been through the engine, you probably have to lean it out some. Have you finished the break-in process?

 

[nitro_newbie]

well if it just does it going up hill ..just don't go up hill..........go down problem solved..if you need any more help let me know ok..

Loose slipper, smoked clutch, needs tuned? Hold on a second, haven't we been through this? I'd scuff and clean both clutches. An inspection can't hurt. Did you do the pinch test? Your engine may just be worn out as well.

yea i gotta give it a good tuning maybe that will help it, and the little slope is only about 18 degrees so,not that steep.anyway,,tthanks for your help guys

18 degree grade should be no sweat.
Stuck in 2nd, my Savage with the old .21bb handled a tall 30 degree grade hill.

Is the engine giving up or is it slipping?
What temp are you running?
Tune it & go through your system like Metalhead says...
