Hi,
Im pretty new to nitro cars and just got my Cen Nemesis.
Please help i just cant start nemesis anymore ...
This is what i did :
- From brand new, i let the motor run-in a couple of tanks, no problem.
- After this i did drive it slow and easy- put in after run oil. - no problem.
- Next day i drove again slow and easy- put in after run oil. - noproblem.
- Next day the pull string broke
, and i installed the roto-start parts and using a drill to start the engine - no problem.
- Next day i could'nt start it at all...
I've been reading and reading and cant find the solution ..
This is what i allready checked for :
- I Checked the engine for flooding, screew out the burn plug and put the engine upside down. - No flooding.
- Replaced it with new fuel.
- Tried to put a drop of fuel inside the top below the burn plug - it started but stalled after 1 min.
- Tried to turn carburator screew clockwise to close it and turned it counter clockwise 3 1/2 full times - No results either.
- My glow starter is fully loaded and my glow/burn plug work fine - Took it out and tested it.
- There are no cracks in the engine as i see, and no leaks or what so else, i think.
- The fuel goes fine from the tank to the carburator when i block the exaust.
- I have also tried to manually "speed up" (throotle) when trying to start.
- I have valso been trying to start the engine inside, when the engine had a livingroom temperature.
The exaust is dripping (3-4 drops) from the hole with some oil'ly stuff, after trying to start, is this normal..?
Can anyone help me to start this beast again ????

Hi,
1-open the needle mixture to 3-1/2 turns from closed.
2-Before starting your engine lose abit the glow plug because your engine is still stiff,ones the engine
started tight the glow plug
3-You might have flooded the engine too much so that will be quit hard to get the engine
started.
4-Open your trottle about 3mm before trying to start.
Hope this helps

I've had the same problems. I have to use a 18 volt battery drill with a NEW battery. Once battery drains down a little bit it becomes hard to start. NEW battery , starts right up. Hope this helps. The roto start gun they sent sucks, use a battery drill 18v.
