hey guys, my lightning 2 sport won't run. i start it occasionally but then it dies immediately. also, when im primmin the fuel, i hav to set the throttle to at leats half open b4 any fuel will run up the line so i think it has sumthin to do with that. the car isnt runnin to lean coz i hav returned the carb needles to the factory settings another thing, when im starting it with a starter box, sumtimes i hav to spin the fly wheel the oppisite way bcoz it gets stuck. if u hav ne suggestions as to whst i can do to get it started that would be muchly apprectiated.

It's too rich now. Lean the LSN by 1/4 turn and try again. Also try a new glow plug.

ok. yeh ill try that. ive already replaced the glow plug.

yeh i leaned the lsn but it still wont start. ill try it again l8r but does ne one have other suggestions??

You are using a charged up glow ignitor?

Check that the carb throat gap is OK. 1 - 1.5mm.

as you have returned it back to factory settings it will be very rich when you glow start is in does it run and when you take it out does it stall ?

yeh the glow plug igniter is charged. the carb throat gap is set at 2mm so i will adjust it. yeh the car runs wen the glow starter is in but stalls its taken out. is that coz its still to rich?

yeah very rich so rich the engine doesnt produce enough heat for the glow plug to stay hot
