( ??? ) !~T-Maxx Starting Problem~! ( ??? )
Well went and bought a Tmaxx 2.5 yesterday brand new too just bash around.
So today i was going to go and do Break-In Process and the Truck wouldnt start
Now i am very good with nitro and have been in nitro for a while but these thing i can not figure out at all.
Wene i go to start it the Ez-start motor will not turn but i took out glow plug and unfludded motor because i wasnt sure if it was fludded and thene the motor worked just fine.So i put glow plug back in and was going to go do break in and again the exstart motor did not turn over.
Anybody know what these could be???
Been trying for an Hour now and it is really driving me crazy.
Thank's for any Help.
Thnx,XsX

brand new, never fired up?
how cold is it where you live?
ez start battery fully charged?
can you even prime the engine with the plug on?
does fuel move towards the carb at all?
do you have a drop or two of the after run oil in the glow plug hole?
how are you getting the fuel to the engine if the engine is not turning over?
sounds like the engine has too much compression.. have you warmed up the engine with a blow dryer before starting the engine?
i had a similar issue with a savage engine.. i had to loosen the glow plug a tad just enough to get the engine fired up, then after a few seconds or so of the engine running, tighten the plug. also, squirting a little fuel in the glow plug hole before putting the plug back on may help too.

im guessing you have the TQ3 transmitter. when you have the car started and its ideling high and moving forward a bit there is a little nob on the transmitter next to the little wheel under the antenna, and under it, it says throttle trim turn that to the left untill the car stops moving
