Engine Hard To Start!!!
 
Hi people,

Only me!

Ive recently fitted a Team Infinity .15 pull start engine into my Thunder Tiger SSK.

All went well until the start up!

Engine turns over nice & smooth with no glow plug but with glow plug finger tight & fuel in the carb the engine feels almost solid.

Any idea's.

losen your header just a little bit, so you lose some compression. ONLY if your positive its not flooded

Hi SSmoked,Thanks for your reply.

I left the glow plug out for 45mins & tried again but it was still
tough to pull :flaming:

Tried your advice & after a cuople of pulls she fired up :nod:

Thanks once again!

I now have my Thunder Tiger up & running in order to gain more
experience before spending some real cash on a 'proper' monster
truck that will withstand the abuse im bound to throw at it.
