Edit: BTW, it only happens when the engine is running. It will not do it without the engine running. Does this mean something?
Yes, this is very important!

This often happens when metal is aloud to rub against metal, and I think this is the real cause for the problems rather than saturating the RX with a too strong signal.

My advise is to replace the throttle pushrod (or metalwire in this case) to a plastic one!

I thought that was only a problem with gas/spark plugs?
Gary, if you throttle cable is metal, your clevis is metal, and your throttle arm on the engine is metal, then even with a glow engin you can generate static. Is this the situation with your setup? If it is the problem could be a combination of swamping the receiver and generating static when the engine is running.
