need help with mad force
i got done putting my truck together yesterday and was playing with it yesterday. when i give it throttle it is boggy in the beginning and then it starts to sound like it should. when i let off the throttle i have to keep revving the engine up to keep it going if i let off the throttle too long it will die on me. i know it will be a little rich since it is new but my other truck i didn't have this problem.

RE: need help with mad force
try leaning out the low speed adj. screw. even thought the engine is set to be rich during the engine break-in it shouldn't be so rich that the engine will stall when idleing. another thing to check is the size of the air intake opening when the throttle is at idle. it should be about 1mm. any smaller and the engine cant get enough air to idle. its the same thing as running rich. it may also be a combonation of both possible problems. good luck with your mad force
