My rustler is choking
Ok guys I got my rustler 2.5 yesterday nitro.. Well it was running fine yesterday and it is broken in.. well today this morning it was running fine... And then i decided i needed to re-glue my tires and well I went to start it again and it started but when I press the gas it chokes and i have no idea what it is.. I tryied leaning it out and it does the same thing but I am not sure if I leaned it enough to it to run right. But it is also spittin gas out of the pipe, I have no idea what it is. Please help me! Thanks guys so much for your help. If you want you can IM me on AIM at blacsky1320. Thank you for taking your time to read my post guys.

if you SEARCH about engine tuning here in rctech or in the internet... you will find a lot of good explaination...
but now i will give you one link...
http://www.rccartips.com/rc-nitro-engine-tips.htm
if you need to read more... than do a search.
and it is BEST to go directly to your LHS (local hobby shop) and ask for hands-on help!!!! where you can learn to tune your engine 'LIVE'.
nitro engine is VERY SENSITIVE. SENSITIVE to wheather, sensitive to needle tuning, sensitive to fuel, sensitive to glow plug.... etc etc etc...
good luck

Well I figured out the problem ( I didnt know you couldnt leave it in idle for along time) I left it in idle for along time and it flooded. Thanks for the help though.

thats mean your LOW SPEED NEEDLE is a bit rich. lean it a bit... turn 3-5 min CW.
by turning your LSN you will have a better acceleration due to a leaner fuel while idling.
