i posted about heis before but i stored the rustler for the winter and i tried to use it the other day but wont start. when i try to prime it the gas wont go to the carburetor. so i took the gas line that leads to the carb off and tried to prime it and gas will shoot out fromt the tube. so then i put gas in the carb where the air filter would be and it will start up then die when there is no more gas from the carb. plz help any answers will be appreciated

My Feedback: (2)

is the fuel tank "vent" blocked? (the hole that the pressure line connects to on the fuel tank)

is that the line that lead to the exhaust. sorry im new to nitro

Did you store it with fuel left in the tank and engine? Might need to pull out the carb and give it a good cleaning. and yes, the vent is the line attached to the exhaust pipe.
