Hi everyone, I bought a new savage x the other day and have nothing but headaches from day 1. After finally getting it running I find myself having some more problems as the days go by. Here it goes;

1 - The tube from the exhaust to the fuel tank - When I keep it on (attached to the exhaust/fuel tank) the truck stalls, sputters and has a very low top speed but when I let the tube hang unattached from the exhaust it flies. doesn't stall and doesn't sputter

2 - the rear wheels don't spin. elevated or stationary on the ground the rear wheels don't turn when I give it throttle but they DO turn by hand.

3 - The brakes only work on the rear wheels (that don't spin) and not the front.

Thanks all for reading this novel, I am new to this hobby so any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated

Well sounds to me like the Hsn needs no be leaned out, and as far as the wheels in the rear not turning, sounds like a drive train issues! Dog bones, or a dif possiblly!

Exactly right, a little more tuning worked great. As for the wheels, I was missing a pin in my diff. all fixed and ready for some bashing. Thanks for the suggestions!
