The EZ start can light the glow plug up just as hot as an igniter. The problem is, there is a few places where it can get corrosion, or old fuel around the contact point can be problematic for the connection. Btw we both live in Idaho

Good video. But I disagree on ditching the EZ Start glow plug wire. I have a Revo 3.3 and don’t have any problems with it. Other than my starter motor burning out. I even upgraded my starter wand to use a 2S lipo battery

I've been telling people this for years, I can't believe it's not common knowledge yet

Probably shouldn't be adjusting the idle that much if this is an issue. Set your idle gap to mfg recommendation and tune from there.

Hey the reason youre blowing so many Glow plugs is because you ran VP fuel without richening the fuel mixture. The traxxas top fuel has much more oil than the VP. In the long run, youll foul out way more traxxas glowplugs with that type of fuel, and the OS ones will foul too, but they'll last longer. Your engine appears to be running a little lean btw. Avoid tuning the carburetor a lot. Try not to make large adjustments where you have to unscrew and rescrew the needles, the carb is very fragile and gets damaged easily by this. Its better to leave these traxxas carburetors Alone for the most part and use traxxas fuel, and leave the idle reasonably high to compensate for the rich fuel mixture going in. Since youve already run it this way for a while i recommend just seeing how long it lasts, then buying a New, non traxxas engine with a base tune carb

I’m up in north Idaho and I have a tmaxx so same truck, same state, and same area of the same state, we should hang out where you at couer de lane, Kellogg, pinehurst, post falls? Where you at cuz we now friends

Thank you for getting directly to the point, great video to help me decide!

Hey I know im late but wil this work on a castle x8s hydra?

I just installed mine yesterday and was freaking out cuz that loud buzz that comes from it but I see youres also makes same noise

Looks good, im getting ready to detail my engine cover up. What did you use to paint it? I'm new to the painting part...

What tires are you running on your Revo?

👍

i got a mamba XLX and the calibration is rubbish i will never consider electric ever again, Nitro & gas only from now on.

Why isn't it shifting to 2nd

Can’t wait to see it

Can’t wait to see it

This came in clutch I was about to start tuning my rc car

Awesome truck and tips mate!!! 🥇👍👍👍🤜🤛😎

the interior what website can that be found on please also does it come with the head and streaming wheel

How many turns out was the idel screw 🤔

I fixed mine with a thin strip of Teflon tape on threads then used this info works great

Modify your ez start to accept a lipo, no need for a seperate ignitor. Traxxas fuel is garbage and you replaced the cooling tower, not the head. Idle is too high and I never heard it hit 2nd gear, that is adjustable too.

Stop

I actually stripped out mine last week..i wish i seen you video thank you

Are you sure that’s not 500k lol

did you mean lc3 glow plug? there is no ic3

Thanks for the tips great video very informative keep it up! ❤

Ok I’m cutting my center plate out thanks I got a axle mounted servo but the type of truck I got my plate gets in the way

So to summarize. Use good fuel, get a good cooling head and get a glow plug and igniter

i switched to the VP fuel as well and the truck seems to be running better

OS plugs, yes. Different glow igniter, not needed with the OS plug. Less oil, no. The traxxas motors love extra oil. Also your idle is super high

What happens if your steering wheel is your throttle. How do I fix that

Weak video bro

Thanks sir!

So I have a problem that. It will start it won't go

Lo voy abrobar y te aviso si funsiona ❤

Os11k carb and aftermarket rod

Or you could just bring the idle up slightly with the radio turn the screw and let the motor come back down to an idle... 🙄

never have I had this problem

i got the same issue making a 8x4 scx24 and somehow on reassembly it doesnt reach but i got a fix in mind

The precision of the back to the center is good?

I think that you ment the head would fit the 2.5 and 2.5r. If its for a 2.5 it wouldn't fit the 3.3

Good info.

What motor do you run

Those highly angled shocks have far far more negatives than positives. Do a proper suspension, and don't worry about flex friday

Wow I've been using 10 percent fuel for over 30 years and not had a problem maybe that's the issue...... but I know you guys want to go as fast as you can

Helpful tip your idle is way to high.

Thanks brother your instruction was just straight forward, imagine I had the manual but your explanation is self explanatory. You saved my day.
