Default RE: Engine Trouble


ORIGINAL: brian4558

Breaking in a Tower Hobbies .25 Tower Terror. Engine fired but is running crazy fast. Clutch engaging and tires are moving. Checked the needles and set at 4 1/2 high, 3 1/2 low and the idle stop from the factory was at 1/4 inch. the manual said "1 mm from the body" and I screwed it in TIGHT but only got it about 1/8th inch away. What gives? Is it broken and how can I fix it?
If you're sure needle positions are correct and idle gap is fine, I'd start checking for airleaks.
