Too lean???
 

Hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Finally had the balls to go full throttle with the xtm nitro xcellerator. Extremely fast! Awesome! (first nitro car) But it started bogging at 40mph and my glow plug is a little brown. Am I running too lean?[&:]

P.S. Is bogging the chewbacca sound I hear at full throttle? (I'm a noob to nitro engines):D

you are just starting to hit the too lean point. id give it a 1/4 turn richer, especially if your bashing.

2 more hours and im breaking my truck in. i hope i do this right. i baught 10 extra glow plugs just in case lol.

i got a ? tho. i got a good glow igniter that has a meter that tells me if there bad. do you have to let it charge the 16 to 19 hours and how do you know its charged? also once i do that how long does it take after that and how many charges do i get off it? it uses a 2400 mah batt.

You got a peak charger? If so, dispose of the wall charger and charge the battery(s) with the peak charger...keep an extra battery charged and ready to go in your box.

Charging depends on what type of battery came with it...NiMH or NiCD. NiMH you don't have to discharge before charging, you can "top it off" The rate of charge of the wall charger is so small, you can leave it on for days without worry.It is a trickle charger.
