I just took my old trainer out of the garage today. I'm planning on building a new one. The radio and receiver/servos work fine. But the OS .40FX will not start.

In order to get the motor to turn over with my electric starter, i took the head off, and poured a little bit of fuel into the cylinder and carb to lube it. Then i cranked it over with the starter. Now i have it back in one piece, but i still can't get it to start.

I downloaded the user manual, and set the screw to 1 -3/4 and 1/4 throttle, and changed the glow plug. Still will not fire, keep in mind it has been sitting about 8 years.

Also, the fuel i am using is 15% and it's just as old as the motor (this may be the problem). It was kept dark and cool during the time it was stored.

Any thoughts?
Thanks guys (and gals)
