Identify this truck!!
 

I got this truck for $10..

All I need is a Muffler, Filter, some clips, a tube, and there's something wrong with the carb...not sure yet.

But I have NO IDEA what this truck is.

Any ideas?

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

It's great shape, decently clean too. I cleaned it more. I'm taking it to the hobby shop and let them take a look at it and buy everything I need...and hopefully the motor won't be busted.

The engine is .16

Also, can anybody tell the scale? 1/8? 1/10?

Looks like a Duratrax Maximum MT to me. Looks like one of their torq engines.

another pic to help you guys out


It's not as high as it looks in the first picture, it's actually pretty low.

It is a Duratrax Maximum mt. I used to have one a while back. It has a torque .16 engine. Pretty tough truck. You can get lots of hop ups and even a 2 speed conversion which it looks like it already has.

i have no clue because it has a 2 speed

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

sorry i dont know brand , but its not a GT. .............looks good tho.

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

Nope. Not a gt.

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

its duratrax, i can tell by the throttle servo, and check the engine, what lettering is on it? does it sat DTX on it?

MORE PICTURES!

I think some of you guys are getting it. The engine has TORQ on it, but it does have duratrax servos. So, it's kinda random.

It's 2 speed? How would I control that with a standard controller? Is it automatic?

Defo a Duratrax Maximum. The torq engines are made by Duratrax.

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

Its a Duratrax maximum mt for sure without a doubt just like I said in earlier post. The torq .16 is what it cam with. Thay had very restrictive exhausts on them when they first came out and were pretty gutless untill you changed the manifold and pipe. Then they came to life. Not a bad truck. Just not as good as all teh trucks out now.

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

It's sorta converted. Anyway, how can I make this truck better?

I think carb is messed up =(

the 2 speed will **** on its own.

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

Does it have compression. What makes you think carb is messed up? You can drop in another engine pretty cheap if needed. Have you tried to start it?

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

whats wrong with carb?

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

Not yet, it's missing a couple of tubes, a pipe and a pull start. Getting everything tomorrow.

BUT, when I turn on the electricity on the car and my controller, the turning is awesome, but the throttle is iffy, it moves well,but the carb doesn't open or close.\

You guys want video?

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

un hook the link to the carb and try by hand . sure it will move. wouldent hert to put a few drops of after run oil or 3in1 oil in there. to lube it.

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

Yes if you can. If you undo the linkage to the carb can you manually open and close it. It may just be gunked up from old fuel. The oil will turn to gel after a while and make everything stiff. You may just want to take th engine out, take it apart and clean everything real well.

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

Sorry slow typer^^^^^^

RE: Identify this truck!!
 

You're right, it's very stiff and gross. Gotta clean it reaaal good. Imma do everything tomorrow. The place I go to should do most for me.

-Clean engine
-Install missing pieces (Filter, Tubes, Cover, Pipe, Pull Start)
-Tune

And it should be ready to go Friday. =D
