first, check and see if there is any plastic junk in the fuel tank, if so, clear it outa there.
second, please take this advice, use odonnel 30% race fuel and a mccoy mc-59 glow plug. you will be very happy with the results as long as you do your proper breakin. it will need to be richened up past the factory settings with the higher nitro content, but the engine will run consistent and reliable at 220 - 250, depending on how you tune, and make AMPLE power.

I used to use sidewinder 20% but with my Revo I found that it ran a bit on the hot side and not nearly as fast and cool as it does with the standard traxxas fuel. I switched to traxxas 20% top fuel from the sidewinder 20% and noticed a huge drop in temps as well as all around better performance.
