Pull the plug cable and try a regular igniter. That system isn't the best man, and that is a common issue (not the only possibility, but a good start)

Throw it in the trash! LOL, i bought a brand new motor for mine and it wouldnt run right, took it to my LHS and paid them to fix it, 3 weeks later it still wouldnt run right, prob the main reason i fell out of the hobby.

Well there's your problem . On a serious note, this happened to my friend's tmaxx and he tried all the fixes you did but he had to buy a new engine and then all was well. I would recommend getting a higher quality motor just for reliability
