First, I went through the break in, ran four tanks at mild speeds. (the guy at Hobbytown said three should be good) Then I opened it up and WOW. Coming from an old electric, I am certainly impressed. One problem. My air filter is wet, and after the last tank of fuel, it wont start. I disconnected the fuel line and reconnected it, watching while turning it over to make sure it is getting fuel, and it is. So any ideas what might be the issue?

Second, what fits on this, as far as other rims, etc? I still have my old Losi parts (somewhere) with a whole box of tires and rims, will they work? And what about bodies? I hope I'm not limited to the bodies they show on the Losi website, because they are all the same.
Check your Glow Plug. If it is good then make sure the batts in your glow ignitor are good.. If it is getting fuel and the gow plug is working it should start..

But, break-in takes longer than 4 tanks. Most everyone goes a full gallon before leaning the engine out, or going WOT for more than a few seconds..

BTW Welcome to the world of Nitro.. Your life will never be the same..
