Default fg st wont start help PLEASE

Last night i put my rear up alloy arms on. When I got finished I notice my throttle servo was held almost open while the receiver was off i must of moved the rod while working on it. So then i turned the radio on and it moved back to neutral. This morning i tried to start about 20 to 25 pulls and nothing.

Try to kick it real hard just kidding

Start with checking the usual, that you have spark and fuel goes trough the lines etc etc...... do you have any fuel in the tank ? kidding again Did you check that the choke was in the right place ? it may be flooded now.

There is several threads that can help you by using the search button for problem starting motor, in advanced: bigscale.

You can remove the spark plug, hold the truck upside down and pull the starter 4 or 5 times to push any fuel in the chamber out onto the ground. It's a clumsy operation but effective. Then go back to choke, pull until it pops, unchoke, pull until it starts.

How many tanks of fuel have you run through the truck?

another thing to check is the kill switch... It can get stuck down.

Check to see if you are getting fuel. Pump the primer and you should see it passing through the fuel line, if not you may have pinched either of the two during your install.
