Can anyone help me I have done what he has done in the vid and then it just won't start and the glow plug is hot cus I took it out and put it in the starter and burnt my hand
guys can someone help me here, i wanna get one of these cars, but as i've never had a petrol one before im worried about flooding the engine when i prime it. is it easy to see the fuel going into the carb? reply pleasee thanks :)
Dude I think you're running it too rich, cause your wheels are spinning while it's on idle. It's either that, or your idle screw needs to be adjusted. Pretty good video other than that.
You're running it waaay too lean, you're engine isn't getting the lubrication it needs like that, you'll cease the engine soon if you don't make it abit richer.
THANKS its people like u daat help newbs (like me) get into the hobby if u could get a vid up on how to tune the engine dat wood be much apreciated :D keep up the tutorials :)
@coltonrocks419 well theres a easy way to turn it off, i found this by just serfing the web....u just pinch the gas line leading to the either carberator or engine.. one of the 2... then it eventrually shuts off in like 3 secs....i know i failed on the word, eventually? idk... but ye...
@MrAram360, if it keeps shutting off every minute then you need to look in the Manuel and check and see how to tune it...that's why it's not working properly...hope it works better for you!
hi I have a problem, my new hpi nitro firestorm is not working all the time, like today when i drive it it just turned of and I tried to start it but it wont start!
I am thinking about getting one of these as my first nitro and was wondering what fuel mixture they use and about how much runtime you get per gallon?
hey, i was also thinking abou thtis car. i got a MT2 18ss+, you build it so you know your car. you learn everything about it. id go for a kit over RTR for my first car. and also this is only 2WD and the MT2 is 4. but what ever.
You must be stupid. You now need to show people how to set the car up. That car should not be tear off on tickover like that. Your slipping clutch needs slackening and your brake needs to be turned on. And put the cars aerial in the hole. Fool!
pul starter and broke it. i bought a Hong Nor Force Pullstart Assembly put it on and went on holiday.
when i came back i tried to start my car up
all the electronics worked and my glowplug andand glowstarter. but not the pullstarter it didn't make the sound it like any pull starter it sounded dead so i primed it and put the igniter in but still not working i tried and tried but still not working can somebody please help me!!!!!!1
No offense or anything man but your throttle trim is just a tad high. You want it to were the idle is at a good pace and the tyres don't spin on their own.
yh it wos my first car. i wos gonna get the schumcher rascal but that wos rubbish so i got the firestorm its easy to use and the spare parts are cheap
do you know what to do if the throttle is on full when you are not pressing anything. because my throttle is on full when i start it and im surpost to be running it in
well it sounds a bit like your throttle is switched on to the reverse of what it should be. there should be two switches on the right probably and try switching the switch that ses something like th. reverse. if that doesn't work tel me. hope that helps
yeh ur car is probaly running either to lean or to rich wat u need to do is ajust the idle needle and the low speed needle and try doing 8th turns each way on both needles till it stops the stalling my guess is its running way too lean or ur gasket has gone even try a diffrent nitro content fuel
i found after i primed it correctly without priming it it starts with the first pull.. on the remote turn the throttle trim labeled th on the tob turn it clock wise 1/4 of a turn and it will start for u.. loosen glow plug to and when it starts tighten it back up
did u mean it started first pull with out priming and on the top of the remote turn the throttle trim 1/4 of a turn from closed(will it be easier?)and loosen the glow plug (how many turns?)
no prime it and ya u do open the throttle trim 1/4 from closed.. it should start first pull and if it doesnt it isnt fully primed or it is flooded.. to unflod, take out the glow plug and pull the pull staher a couple tines and try to start
yes prime it and open it 1/4 from closed it will e easier. if it doesnt start it isnt primed fully or it is flooded. to unflood it take the glow plug all the way out and pull the starter a few times..put it back inand try to start.. if that doesnt help try loosening the glow plug just barley and start.. when it starts tighten it back up.. if that doesnt work comment back and i can tell u further..
lololololol where did u steal that one??

IF you have messed with any of the tuning needles then it might be that your getting too much fuel in the carb or, get a new glow plug.
