most likely the high speed needle is too lean, you need to turn it counter clockwise like a 1/4 turn and see if it helps

thanks but that didn't work! The temp is 225-230. Runs fine as long as I am not driving it around but once take off. Give it gas for a minute is stall.

Murfreesboro HUH!!! that where my father is from!!!

if it's stalling when you give it full throttle from a stand still, it could be the low speed needle adjustment. open it a little see if that helps, check the fuel lines for trash or clog

It takes off fine from start. While it is driving around it stalls. Full trottle, it stalls. Runs fine sitting still.

it either overheating or the engine is shot, how is the compression?

You know what? I think I am just going to either get a os engine and also send this one back to redcat and get a new engine. This one has been annoying seince day one.

LOL, man I would richen your HSN some more ... mine was doing that and I couldn't believe I had to richen it more, but when I did ... it got better.

That's all you can do man, is keep adjusting it in small increments until it gets better and then you know you are on the right track.

But an OS engine would be cool, but why not try and tune the one you have? On those same lines, I had a air leak, source was fuel tank and was why I had to keep richening things. Once I got that sealed up right, I could actually lean it.
