Hi fellow nitro burners, ive finally come to realize i need help and any info is greatly appreciated. Here my problem; ive purchased a used 1/4 scale tunnel with a 13cc k&b about 6 months ago. when i fire it up after priming the lines and carb , the engine is very susceptable to reving rpms through the roof at idle. and cannot get it to act right so i can tune it properly. So after purchasing new carb, fuel tank, fuel lines, hsn valve, new bearing and conrod. tried it today and still have the same issues. what i can tell u when running on bench the carb looks like it to be getting moisture on the  barrel ( is that normal?) and have a mist of fuel coming out the carb.   There is no air bubbles in lines, since ive owned it , it has yet to make a lap in the bayou. ive humbled myself and come to the aid of proffesional enthusiast

Sounds like your starting it backwards, If you are looking down at the flywheel it should turn clockwise.

I have that same exact problem but with my .18 super tiger on my rigger, I can't figure out why it does this. The moor is turning the right way to.???

thanks guys, yes it did kick of backwards twice yesterday so now i keep the starter on a little longer than just kickiin on there to prevent it from starting it backwards. thinkin about it last nite afterwards i realize my high speed needle setting was to lean. 2 turns not good . so next weekend ill retry again with better results i bet. I almost thought there wasn't enuff exhaust pressure and the only cause of that was a week piston and cylinder so i taken it down to look but it still looks new . ill post and let u guys know of next weekend results. again thanks

if you haven t put the engine back together yet slide the piston into the sleave it should get tight a few mm before it comes to the top of the sleave if it comes flush with the top of sleave time for a new piston sleave

Rcguy, thanks for the advice, ran my boat on the bench today! With the flywheel I added and 3 turns on the needle the boat is running singly smooth!
