Status: offline 		I just put my motor back together last night after breaking the conecting rod. I got the truck back together and took it for a easy test drive around my lawn it ran good for about 5 minitues then stalled. It wouldnt restart so I checked and replaced the glow plug. It ran fine for less than a minute. Now it only runs for about 15 seconds before stalling it will however idle if I keep the easy start pluged into the top. Does anyone know whats wrong? thanks

Status: offline 		hahaha that sucks. so the piston was hitting the crank at the bottom of the stroke? i put my motor back together once and went to turn the flywheel with my hand and it wouldnt go all the way done. i found i put my piston in backwards so dont feel bad

i hope you didnt mess anything up while trying to start it with the piston backwards

Status: offline 		probably your piston is in a wrong way, check the manual and do it again.
