2.5jumper

just looking for some help i guess have a 2.5 t maxx and the carb just seems so out of wack just trying to get it out of hibernation here looking for some tips to get it dialed in i guess, can t afford to run to the hobby shop when ever there is a problem anymore thanks to gas price!!! also what is it doing when you hit the throttle and it hicups and quits?? any and all advise appreciated im just comeing back from the day of optimas, and grasshoppers etc..... trying to get back in but this nitro stuffs seems frustrating everytime i drive the truck it seems like i have to drive around with body off all the time cause i have to adjust stuff constantly not much fun.

ya i can go up to 1/4 or so thottle then it hicups and will stall out and then when idleing it jerks around when im trying to adjust it pretty annoying

Is it idling really high? If not take a look at your clutch. It could be broke or your spring could be disconnected or broke. Turn the needles back to factory and retune.

Once you start re-tuning try the instructions in these videos.(not the same truck but same concept)

The jerking when it idles is just a T maxx thing...You can try adjusting your idle but chances are that it will still do it anyway...At least thats what ive come to find out
