Engine problem
 
I think my engine got ****ed up [&:]

when i press full throttle the engine seems that cant run faster but its going really slow and the sound its not really good. Its not the tunning i was tunning it all the day and still hear this sound that seems like the engine cant breath. I have clear and oiled the air filter but still hear the same sound.

I would like to see some suggestions to what to do or if i need a new engine [:o][:o]

I have a mantis with 1st spec axial engine.

How old is the engine? Broken in yet? What happens when you rev the engine then then at the same time slowly turn in the high speed needle? Does it change then? Usually if it wont rev its because its way too rich.
