tmaxx tuning problems
 
Hello, new to the sight so. Any help would be helpful.ive have a. 3.3 that i just cant seem to get running correct heres what it does and what ive done. Has new. Block new piston and sleeve new carb. Fuel lines and air filter ive got to tank 4 with traxxas break in and have gone. Through 3 glow plugs it runs then seems to flood. Out ive cleared it then run it again and it does the same thing but heres. The kicker it spits fuel out the cab and seems
to have compression but when it runs and does the goofy flooding problem it actslike theres no compression well theres no pressure from the pipe if i let it. Sit a while then i have pressure again also this truck. Will run without the pulse hose an the muff ive had several nitr cars and trucks but have never had this problem. Before please help thanks

first off sounds like you way to rich. being so rich you could have did damage to the piston/sleeve seal. when it did run did you gat it up to temp( 180-220)? for fuel to come out your carb it is way rich

We got a another dubber on tech. Lol

When you break in an engine you have to reset it to factory settings.

I'm not fully sure, but if t will run without the hose on the muffler, then you have good conpression. The hose is only there to help get fuel to an engine.
