Default Revo 3.3 problems...

Hey guys. So I'm new to the nitro world. I just bought the revo 3.3 and I got threw the first tank of gas let it sit for 15 mins tried to start it up again it wouldn't start. Tried again started wont idle revs up and down then stalls. I called traxxas they helped in no way. So I redid the factory tune And it idles really high I hit the gas it stalls. So I call traxxas again he stays to bump the throttle to keep it running. But if I hit the gas it dies. Idk what to do I'm lost I've been trying to start it for an hour my ez start died and now I'm mad. I couldn't even get threw the break in. Sorry for the long post I just don't know what to do... Help

What i did with my hpi mt2 was put it on a rail on my back porch where the wheels spin freely. And just adjust the carb till it purrs like a kittin. Lol i dont really know what else to tell u. Im not much of a nitro guy. Just gotta play with the tuning til its right.

sounds like you have low fuel pressure. inspect the fuel and tank pressure lines, fuel cap. take the lines right of and inspect for any cuts, tears, or holes. inspect the fuel tank and cap where the o ring rides. if all checks out remove the carb and clean, reassemble and start back at factory settings.

I hope there's not a hole in the fuel line being that it's a new truck.

LSN too rich maybe? I had so many problems with my 3.3 a few years back even on the break in, they really are a pita to tune.
