I'm a newb at this. With that said I got a brand spanking new 1/10 18 CXP rapid vh a6 lamborghini and like I charged the glow plug igniter correctly and tested the glow plug to ensure the string inside of it turns orange and it got warm so I can tell that worked. Then I turned radio on first, then car, I had a full tank of gas in it, then I put the igniter security in the engine hole where the glow plug is and I pulled the starter and it turned on for 2-3 seconds then shut off. Then I turned it on again and hit the throttle a little bit to try to get it going somewhat but it shut off once again. then I messed with my throttle settings on my control and the engine had kept flooding since yesterday, it turns on then it turns off, then I try to pull againa nd it floods so I take glow plug out and pull the cord 20 times like the book says. Then It floods again, so then I began messing with the needle settings, then smoke starting coming out from the glow plug hole, not much but i think it's the glow plug but i'm worried i may have blown the engine.


What do I do? please help

Try this, put the needle settings back to factory, and take off the air filter then on the control turn the throttle trim so the carb is open a little bit, then try to start it. If it starts and stalls, have some one else work the throttle trigger on the controller to keep it running. If you get it run, do the break in.

This is what I did, I have the same exact car but with no manual, oh and when you start it, make sure it is on a block so the wheels aren't on the ground, thats how mine messed up. One last thing, do you have the manual still and think you can scan it and give me a copy.
