Status: offline 		hey guys im back, i tried running it again today, and hes what i observed.

it starts up, takes a while but then it gets easier and easier to start the more times i start it.
it had a higher pitch sound than the first time i ran it (when it was fine)
there was no smoke visible,
it seemed to eat up nitro faster then it should? also the gas when it was running with its highER pitched sound, seemed to be bubbling inside the tank..

i also noticed some oily feeling liquid being lightly sprayed from the exhaust.

what do i do? i also touched the engine head. it was pretty damn hot. the type of hot that u cant touch it for more then like a milisecond

Don't know were to start. Your idle is too high, lean it. The exhaust is normal. Starting-normal. No smoke is good, but there should be a nice stream when you give it wide open throttle. Bubbling? That could be the reason your idle is revving higher, makw sure they are no cracks, holes, or openings in the tank. Be sure to check the fuel lines also.
