Whether its an AUTO START or Pull start be sure Glow Plug is good. just get a new one only about 4 bucks.
Here two ways to force a start quickly if engine is in working order.
#1 try and prime the gas lines to carb first by whatever means you can. Via return line from exhaust or a prime pump built into tank.
#2 HOLD finger over exhaust pipe and start the engine. Back pressure forces the gas in the line faster then normal. Don't hold it to much you might flood the chamber then you have to pull the plug and dry the compression chamber.

thats the car minus the top cause the top is missing. If I can clean the motor out that will be good because I just found out somehow my van got damaged really badly underneath (I never hit nothing so someone had to of hit me) and have to have body work done on it. that and the oil sensor misfired and had to be replaced. Bah good thing I have insurance and a low deductable.
Its my opinion - the carb probably needs to be re-tuned and cleaned.
be sure to get correct gas. Most cars like 20% Nitro but find out what the guy was using. You shouldn't be mixing to much... |
Wow thanks mac. the one I got is COVERED in black carbon on the outside so it just may be filled on the inside as well. I need to look up manufactures specifications. The car is a Duratrax Axis looks to be model number sx-205 and what the faq on it says is the same thing you just said Mac
