Hello and welcome to the world of Nitro.


First off take the air cleaner off and open throttle, tip car upside down and shake access fuel out of carb. Without using glow plug starte pull the starter cord very slowly and see is you can pull it without crazy force. If not it's hydrolocked. Make sure the area inside the head where the glow plug is, is clean and take out glow plug. Again tip upside down and shake access fuel out. Before you reinstall glow plug see if it works. In a dark area, hook up the igniter very carefully with some insulation hold plug but do not touch tip. When you press on igniter see if it glows. If it doesn't new plug needed. If it does reinstall, not too tight. Reinstall air cleaner if it's not dry, if not replace or dry it out.

This time when you try to start again, donot prime it and do not use igniter at first. Pull very lightly a few times just to make the piston move past TDC, top dead center, ie. past the pop. After a few times then try to start with igniter, be patient, if you prime by blocking exhaust only hold for one pull, better to underprime than over prime. If it floods again. repeat the above but this time look at your manual or the Cen sight for the correct starting positions of low and high speed screws. High speed screw most important. Reset and repeat the above. If engine still tough to start ask if local hobbyshop has a starter box they can use to get it going.

One other thing, I don't know how cold it is where you are but if it's below fifty you must and should for proper engine break in warm engine up manually first. Remember the fuel is volatile so be careful with hair dryer to warm up head only and in a well ventilated area and keep dryer element well away from car.We are looking for a mild heating not to spark the fuel.

One last consideration. if it is cold where you are consider waiting because an engine broken in when it's cold will never run as well when it is hotter, I find that atleast 6o works best. Also used the heat soak method to break in the engine. Very mild running, no fast accelerations and keep the engine to between 190 to 200. Short runs 1 to 2 minutes, stop put piston to BDC and let completely cool. Keep doing this while building up the time up to 3-4 minutes, 5-6 minutes etc. Do this for atleast 5 tanks of fuel. Use the same % nitro that you will eventually run the car with.

Hope this helps.

PS: make sure all motor mounts are tight, throttle and break linkages and use threadlock if necessary.
