My duratrax thunder quake was driving fine the my friend can over I di like a foot drop it rolled and died. It woukdnn't start forever. we got it to start a few times and would be running all the sudden I would hear a clikc and it would just coast to a stop. then we got it to run good once after that for a while so I drove fast and did a lot of turns and the tire got dislodged so I out it on a stand motor still running with one of my friend givving it a tad bit of gas while I fixed the tire then it did the same thing just click and dead. and its not like a bogging fading away dies its jst sudden. What should I ajust or do to my engine? please help I have surgery tomorow and won'r beable to do anything but play with my new trucck for 6 weeks that will be hard if it don't run.

Don't worry, your truck should run again if it started afterwards. If you had flipped it and landed on the head and cracked it for example, it would not have started at all. A click could mean many things, like carb (loose, servo, linkage) broken mount causing clutch bell gear binding with main gear ...................................
Without the truck in front of someone a diagnosis cannot be made. Hope it goes well with your operation and hope you will be driving your truck soon.


Good Luck.

Check the clutch and make sure the spring is still on.
