T-MAXX HELP PLEASE
Hey, I just got my T-Maxx today and im really new to all this RC stuff. This is my first RC car.
My first problem is I can't get the glow plug wire off the glow plug - Ive pulled really hard and used pliers but it won't budge?
Second is after i make a few high speed passes, and then pull in to stop the engine just shuts down?? I tried leaning it AND richening it but still does it? The engine was pretty hot so I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
And last but not least - I was wondering if there is anyway you can shut down the engine without taking the shell off? Im always having to undo body clips to get to the fuel line? Anything easier??
Thank you in advance

RE: T-MAXX HELP PLEASE
sounds like your engine is overheating, also, did you break it in properly?? for stopping it, just put your finger (or a thick rag) over the exhaust, it should die right away

just use your finger to shut it down, its not that hot. Try resetting your needles to factory and then tune if you are done with break in
