Default What happens when you have an air leak?

I was wondering what accualy happens when you have an air leak or a leak in the tank.

Heres why:

I got all my stuff put on it, got a new clutch spring to fix the rolling problem, so i go out and run it and I retuned it because I set it back to factory. When I start it up and let it idle, it idles fine, but as soon as I hit the throttle it revs up SUPER HIGH like I've held it at WOT for 10 or something like that, and as soon as I let off it idles back down to normal idle speed.

Help please?

ok, me and the good people on the traxxas forums might have solved the problem, when i replaced the spring/clutch i bought the one from traxxas that says (for higher stalls) could that be the reason why it revs up so much?

It could be that the clutch springs are installed incorrectly, or they are much too stiff for your application.
