What holds my carb in?!?!?!

[JBradshaw00]

on my tmaxx 2.5 the car has came off the motor. what hold it?

 

[a dawg]

there should be a small nut on the right side of the motor( if you were looking from the back of the truck) loosen it up to get the carb back on.

dies that nut have a shaft the goes through the motor? i tried loosing it but it pulls the whole shaft through.

yes it does. turn the black shaft and you will see a cut out and that is what goes agianst the carb

Maybe the carb neck broke?

The shaft with the nut on the end has a rounded slot the same shape as the neck. Line it up, slide the carb back in, press down HARD on the carb to compress the O-ring, and tighten the nut. The nut pulls the slot against the carb neck, holding it in place.
