im guessing you didnt get what he said. when you put on the body, it is pressing on the fuel line and when you go WOT it wants more fuel.
a while ago with an onroad car i think it was a hpi rs4 3 nitro, anyway i put a new body on that had no vent holes in it and it would cut out. and without the body it would go nice.

btw what car are you talking about

I have a GS and sometimes the body hits the pressure line where it is connected to the fuel tank. All I do it turn the nipple on the fuel tank so it is not being pinched

try to start it with the body on and see what happpens. is your body covering the stinger that happend to me alot ith the storm body i had to cut half of the body off to stop it. is your airfilter bending or something and not allowing air into your motor our the air filter interfearing with your fuel lines.
