Default RE: Buggy Problems

Take out the glow plug and put the glow driver( glow plug warmer, whatever you want to call it) on the end of the glow plug to see if the glow is actually working. If it is ok, you should see the element  turn bright orange or nearly yellow.<div>
</div><div>By 'the needles', we are talking about the high-speed needle and low-speed needle. These are the needles that you use to tune the engine. If you have an instruction manual for the engine, it should tell you how to reset these. This should make it much easier to start the engine.</div><div>
</div><div>If you are having a problem starting the engine, you may need to make sure that the engine is primed before trying to start it. This means that there is fuel in the fuel lines before starting the engine. You can do this by putting you finger over the exhaust and pulling the pull start a few times until you see fuel flowing through the fuel lines. Don't do this with the glow driver on the glow plug though!!</div><div>
</div><div>Good luck getting it going!!!!</div>
