plz plz help me plz
hi everyone
i feel very humilliated by this but knot nowing that the throttle linkage came lose i started my rush up and it whent to full throttle and i could not turn the engine off for about 20-30 seconds. this ment the engine was cold and started too full throttle. what do you think i should do about the engine?
IS IT SCRAP,UNSAFE or OK??????????
dont know wheater this means alot but the high speed needle setting was about half a turn in from base setting and the low end needle as base settings .
i am using 25% tornado fuel and the engine has had about 1 gallon through it.
why didnt i put a throttle return spring on?????????????
thankyou
boo,hoo boo, hoo

If it starts and runs with power it's fine....yeah add a return spring and check your failsafe out...even though a failsafe's useless if a servo fails...

ps it had nothing to do with the failsf, the throttle ball joint fell off so the carb intake was free to open, hence why full throttle came on.
dam i burnt my slipper clutch OUT

well hopefully you didnt strech or bend the connecting rod
turn it over by hand with some after run oil in it and make sure it spins some what freely (take the glow plug out)
just try to start it
