Every time I hit the brakes the engine shut off. I messed with the clutch for the past week, The carb stays 1mm open when I hit the brake but it still shuts off. What could be wrong?

Sounds like your to the point of frustration[&:] First replace the glow plug and if that doesn't work. Reset all the needles to the stock settings and retune starting with the HSN and work your way back[&o]

yeah i'm pretty much at the point where I'm ready to smash this thing. I took apart the carb and the clutch and redid everything. I even set the needles back except the LSN because I can't get the engine out because I stripped the screw. It finally doesn't shut off the engine when I brake.
But now when I start the truck up it doesn't stay in neutral it takes off running. ***?
I've been to 3 LHS and everyone there are a bunch of idiots!

I think I got it, gonna take it for a test run and then test the temp. Does anyone know if HPI does repairs or tuning? I'm tired of messing with this thing.
