Question about breaking in the new 2.5 MAxx
I just went out and bought the new 2.5 T-Maxx because I cant deal with all the problems my used on has. I am on through the second tank and when I accelerate the maxx is jumpy in the begining and then smooths out. I dont think this is an engine thing I think its a gear box thing. Is this a normal break in problem?
I noticed that the when I first started the maxx the spur gear was wobilly(not turning straight) but by the end of the second tank it straightned itself out. I just wanted to know if anyone else has had this problem and if to worry
Thanks

if you watch your cd that came withn it, it will explain this or look at you manual. its the clutch get ready to go in. the way it works is like a cintrifical clutch on a go cart. the faster the rpm's the tighter it gets. tony

Apparently, they all do this. I didn't get a cd either but he;s talking about how the clutch engages. To me it looks like the slipper pegs shift in the spur gear and cause it to wobble and the high rpm's can get it to straighteb by itself. Not to worry. This was discussed in another thread and is very common and not harmful.
