Default BROKEN NEEDLE HELP

CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHY MY HIGH END NEEDLE ON A TRAXXAS PRO .15 NITRO MOTOR HAS BROKEN TWICE IN TWO DAYS. IT'S BEEN IN THE UPPER 20'S AND 30'S. WOULD AIR TEMPERATURE HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT?

How long is it? It could be vibration is it to actually bend in a cyclic fashion untill it breaks. I have seen this on Airplanes with extended needle valves. It is amazing at how far they will actually bend when you hit the correct cycle.
