Starting problem
I got a brand new HPI 15FE engine and it wont start. When i turn the flywheel by hand, i hear a slite hiss, and i lose a bit of pressure, as i turn the flywheel slowly, i lose compression until nearly nothig, how can i fix this or do i need a new engine.
But its brand new? |

I think it was in the general forum.

the hiss you hear sounds like it is on the compression stroke but i could be wrong, have the carb set right? i believe the factory setting for breakin for the .15fe is 3 turns counterclockwise.
my .15fe in my rush is very dependable and starts on the first pull every time. |

its defintitly compressing, and if i hold it in the middle of compression, the pressure lessens, and that is defintly leaking i think
