car won't start
Yea have a car that hasn't been started or ran for almost 3 years. I tried to start it today n it seems like I'm not getting any fire I kw it works BC the controls kick on. The fuel filter isn't clogged BC I'm getting nitro thru it. Do I just need to clean the glow plug or what else need to be done

first, let me make a clarification. the radio has nothing to do with the engine. just because you can steer and the throttle works doesnt mean the engine will. also, you dont clean glow plugs, you replace them. replace the glow plug, use fresh fuel and make sure the ignitor is charged and working, if you can find the factory settings for the carb, you probably want to reset it. from there, pretty much just pull the starter until it starts. remember to use quick, short pulls. long pulls will eventually break the pullstart assembly.
