ORIGINAL: ajk2649 But anyway quitnas1 this is for you...............I took my tranny apart today after about 2 hours trying 2 remove a stripped screw I had. Finally went 2 auto zone and bought a screw extractor kit and in about 10 seconds I had it out wish I would have done that in the 1st place. But anyway......After taking it apart trying 2 figure out why it wouldnt shift into 2nd I realized it was what you said it may be. That little silver thing you talked about in the pic you posted...Well sure enought hat thing had snapped off so the clutch had nothing 2 grab and engage. The thing that sucks is that I just spent 35$ on a new diff and clutch and it turned out 2 be fine. So I just had 2 ordered a new clutch gear. I hope it gets here in time. I am moving in a week so I'll be F*C#ED if not. Gotta love RC man. Thanks for the onfo tho. After going thru all this with the tranny I could prolly take it apart with my eyes closed.</p> |

i ordered a new steel brake because i lost the old one well the new one came in today and guess what my 13 year daughter walks up to me says daddy is this yours i look and it is my old steel rotor for the jato so now i have a spare[:@]

RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread
Thats funny. That happens 2 me as well. My daughter is 1 year and a half old and when I lose small peices of my jato and go crazy looking 4 them I never find them 4 the most part. My wife will come up and ask "is this for you toy car" ( lol she hates that thing) My daughter will find it and be playing with it and we always catch her with something.

RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread
Got my jato going last week, maneged about 30mis of off road run around, then it suddenly got to a point where it would loose power and cut out the moment I pushed down on the throttle. What is the most likley cause of this?</p> |
RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread
Oh forgot to mention, It would run if I left in the glow starter, could this mean that I need to put in a new glow plug, bearing in mind this was a brand new heavy duty traxxas one.
|
RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread
Check the glowplug first thing... try a OS nº 8! They work great!
Yeah man I got them fixed! work like a charm now... I took the Jato out today for about 3 tanks and had a blast just at my local park doing some jumping and high speed runs... Im SERIOUSLY thinking of getting that OS .18 TZ once my 3.3 dies... I WANT MORE POWER!!! hehehe |

RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread
my wife want to shoot my jato with her shot gun, went out and ran my jato on odonnels for the first time motor ran flawless seemed to get into the rpms quicker than i have seen it run,man it was screaming and it was hard to tell if it was shifting or not, it seems to run stronger on the odonnels r2r than the trinty monster and my brakes are killer

Thanks |
RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread
have you checked the operation of the throttle with engine not running to see how it responds ,did it do this any other time, with the other radio, as for the carb you can get one off of ebay for less than 40 buck to your door; let me know what you find ,that is something i have not heard of.

RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread
did some more tuning on my jato and got my temp 200 to 212 and she started shifting and run flawless idle is great also put wheelie bar on 21 xtr one that i made at work it pulled the front end and carried it about 11/2 inches off the ground till i let off

RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread
the throttle is fine when the car isn't running, but when it's running something else may be causing the problem. of course, i really cant c if the throttle is wrking right when the car is moving....it didn't act up like this with the stock radio, but with the stock radio i didn't get good enough reception (due to me acting stupid) to test the engine out with the new head on. could it be the new head (i got the new "hourglass" RB Inovations head made for the 3.3)? i guess i'll mess around with different combinations of radios and recievers until i can figure out the problem.
