hey guys i got my savage now i need to break it in but my roto start battery is dead so i will do it in about an hour or so i had another kinda charged battery and i tried to start the truck up but it seemed like the truck didn't want to start im thinking the fuel wasn't getting into the carb(probably my mistake) whats a good way to prime the engine? and for the roto start it stops for a second and starts continously when i try to start it can anyone plz help

take the pressure line off the exausht and blow into the one end until you see fuel.if this wasn't clear let me try this disconnect the exausht end of the pressure line and bow into it and you should see fuel go into the engine,this is how i prime mine i got a drill starter

uhhh noo, just cover the exhaust, much easier and works better and you wont get cancer....

i used 7 tanks for break in even thought the manual says 4 so i just went with 7 to be save.it runs good and i can lean lean it out alot,but i don't have a savge i browse the forums looking for people who need help

Hpi_mt2

oh ok im prolly gonna do 4 im looking forward to leaning it out tommorw and jumping it and go mudding

MrSavage

i did 8 tanks because i like to be on the safe side. and i was kidding about the cancer thing although i'm sure its not good for you to get fuel in your mouth...why would you blow in the fuel line when you could just put your finger over the exhuast??

Keep it out of the mud until you deal your RX and servos, unless you think runaways are cool.

6 tanks before you start to lean it out for running temps, 6 tanks before any sustained wide open throttle blasts of significant duration...

Oh ok, i did 6 tanks so after i leaned it out anyways so im good; I LOVE this truck it is awesome i wouldn't trade anything for it besides a million dollars; frost what do you mean to keep it out of the mud what do i need to do to it so i can i havent' got it in the mud yet im looking forward to when it rains.
