.18 TM In a Jato...Header and Starting Problems
 

Haven't had a chance to get to the hobby much, but I cant get the motor started, checked the glow plug and its fine. Its recoil starter equipped.


On another note, Im having problems finding a header, the JAto header won't fit, and a Tmaxx header I bought does not go in the same direction, any opinions or guys with experience with a TM in a Jato?

Get a header that fits the motor and points to the left. It wont be a traxxas header. Then you can couple the resonator to it.

If you do not have a exaust on the engine there is no back pressure so it wont start. But if you want it to fire blow into the line that comes form the exaust to prime then engine. Then pull it, it should start of a second. You might have to hold the throttle open a little to get it to start also. Also make sure you dont have the lines backwards.

I heard an associated header will fit on there. True?

Not sure. The best way is to bring it to the hobby shop and match one up.
