Default HELP with Thunder Tiger ST-1

Hello everyone!!!.. i am having a lot of trouble getting my st-1 to start I think my brother messed with it when i left it at my grandmas house for about 4 months, it takes me at least 10 minutes to get it to run and i need to pull the throttle at least half way for it to start and when i do get it start if i let go of the gas it shuts off instantly I dont want to mess with it without some input because i dont know much about them... THANK!!!

check your idle need? Make sure when you have the throttle closed its about .7mm wide. Then lean out your low speed needle. It sounds a little rich.

From the pics I've seen of the ST1, looks like a truggy. Do you really want buggy tires on a truggy?

The pic shows 1/2 offset rims, but the description says zero offset.

This would be a zero offset LPR rim.

LPR rims and tires are larger diameter and are popular now. Your model probably came with 1/2 offset and smaller diameter rims such as these.
