how do i shut off the engine other than runing the tank dry.

Here is a few ways of stopping a motor:

1) cover the exhaust opening with your finger or rag
2) pinch the fuel line
3) take the air filter off and cover the carb
4) lightly touch the fly wheel with a rag
5) wave a magical yak bone over the engine and say "abracadabra" three times.

Good luck.

Aloha to all in the RC universe!

I have 4 Nitro RC's and all the documentation for each says to pinch fuel line.

Wisdom comes from reading the manual, experience comes from not reading the manual.

yes thats true thanks , think i'll try the magic yakbone thingy ::rainfro:
