Guess what guys. After going thru everything, I found that the main culprit was a combination of the fuel, and the fuel line. I WAS using odonnels 30%, and after doing some research, and talking to a couple of hobby shops. I found out that Odonnels has a tendency to gum up in the carb, and also break down the silicon inside the fuel line. As far as cooling, the temps outside have been in the low 80's, and I was having the overheating problems with the body off. But I do cut holes in the body for cooling. Im also running an oversized air filter. Hopefully Ive solve the problem. SO BEWARE OF ODONNELS FUEL
I will keep you all updated as to how the truck is running. Thanks for all your input.
