Monty what r the stock settings for bf2000 limited, this thing is rich it won't stay running and spitting fuel all over. High was out from flush, I have leaned 2 turns in and it is so rich I can't keep it running. Any help would be great, I have cheap rtr's that didn't give me this many problems.

thanks man

Will do, BTW I ran it all night for club racing in my new Losi I picked up and it ran great. Tons of power and the hottest it got was 270. I turned the HSN about 15 minutes out and it ran at about 250 all night. Man that thing is a beast lol..
