Learning tuning
Hi,
I'm pretty new the the whole nitro R/c thing. I have a Kyosho Nitro Dodge Ram with the GS15R engine. I've run about a 1/4 gallon of fuel through it. Lately, i'm having a hard time tuning the engine. Seems like not matter what I try, I can't seem to get it right. the problem that I'm running into most is that I can't get the initial starting power, seems like it bogs before it starts to move. I've trying adjusting all settings but makes no difference? Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance.

RE: Learning tuning
If its bogging down, its running to rich on the high end. lean it out an eight of a turn at a time until you see a performance gain. Do not try to fully tune the engine until it is at normal operating temps.
