Hi Guys,

I am after some advice on the HPI Racing RTR Nitro 3 Drift.

I bought the car around 1 year ago and now I am having the following issue.

1. When starting the car the wheels automatically start spinning.

I have checked the Clutch shoes and all is OK there.
I am a little confused on the idle adjustment screw.

Here is why:

1. Depending on how far i turn the Idle screw the Clutch bell will either turn the wheels or not turn the wheels. So when i adjust the Idle Screw and move the wheels while the car is off the clutch bell will not spin itself nor the wheels. Though if i over screw the idle screw and then turn the wheels i notice the clutch bells starts turning the wheels.

I then adjust it back so the idle screw makes the clutch bell not spin the wheels and then start the car and i notice that sometimes then the clutch bell engages the wheels and sometimes it doesn't.

I have also adjusted the Carbie so there is a 1mm opening.
I have checked for any air leaks in the fuel pipe and also fuel tank.

Can i get some advice?

Here is the Manual on the car:
