Default hyper st pro won't start

well I just finished my hyper st pro. I installed a brand new mach 427 engine. For the life of me I can't get this thing started. This is not my first nitro vehicle and I'm a fairly good tuner. I got the carb on the factory settings. I checked the glow plug and it's nice and hot. I have fuel pouring out of the pipe when trying to start. anyone have any ideas?

Change the plug and make sure the ignitor is charged. Some plugs that glow still don't work. If nitro is pouring out of the pipe lean it alittle.

Anything blocking your Carb from getting air?

i'm running the stock air filter. I'll put in a new plug and see if that helps... i'm still baffled as to why gas is coming out of the exhaust

Again sounds like you have it way to rich. I assume it is turning over. Just not lighting. Sounds like the plug to me.

Also when you change to a new plug. Turn it over and get all the excess fuel in the engine and pipe out. You might have a flooded engine already.

well i finally got it started. I didn't really do anything but back out HSN all the way, run it back to bottom then backed it out 4 turns.. I have it idling for a good 20seconds but killed it due to the time and living in a apartment complex.. this motor has a ton of pinch.. maybe these mach motors are just a ***** to break in.
