Hi guys (again!)
When I pull on the throttle my car produces a lot of revs but practically no speed (no acceleration)
I was advised that it was my gear differentials so I stripped the car down and managed to get it sorted (there were 3 screws loose which I thightened)
Anyway I took it out again tonight to test run it and again I got the above problem after it running smoothly for about 2 mins.
Can anyone offer any advise?
Is there anything beneath the 3 screws in the differential gear e.g other cogs?
Thanks,
Paul

Did you tighten the diff screw inside the outdrives.
If not tighten it snug then back it out till you can turn one outdrive one way and the other turns the oppsite way, then adjust as needed after you run the car. (hold the gear in one hand and turn with the other) Hope this helps...
