Trouble starting new Losi nitro truck

Well I just bought a Losi XXX-NT Sport rtr. I just spent 45min trying to start the truck. I would start for a second then stall. Right after this the enigine would seem to have hydro lock. The truck has a Dynamite Mach .15 engine with recoil start. I followed the suggested factory break in setting. PLEASE HELP.

if it's just hydro locked you would loosen the glow plug and turn the crank to clear it out but it may be jammed from high compression thic takes alot of time but you have to wear down the sides of the piston enough so it moves a little more free
