Nitro MT 2 w/ OSMAX .18 CV-RX Not Starting

[tymyshu]

Hey I have a OS-Max OSMAX .18 CV-RX and the damn engine wont turn over. It turned Over a little at the start but was feeling Really BOGGED down kinda. Then Afterwards It wouldn't turn over PERIOD. I'm afraid the engine might have died. I have the STOCK Nitro MT2 Engine that has never been used but I'm kinda saving it up for a bit. I was wondering if any of you guys could offer me some tips. I'm gonna try and rebuild the motor tonight and Hope that fixeds the issue when I run it. Any Tips would be of GREAT help. Thank you.

ok i have the same combo, mt2 with os 18cv-rx........but it modded mine, it rips!

ok anyhow, try leaning the needles out about 1/8th of a turn, clear the engine of any fuel thats in it, and make sure the glow plug is glowing very bright, it sounds like you are over priming it which makes thigns so annoying, when you prime it, look at the fuel line, when you see the fuel get to the carb, STOP STOP STOP! just bring it right to the carb and no more, now try starting it

Well I rebuilt the entire Engine Tonight. What I wanted to know was some of the needle setting for the engine(from 0 Opening) for when I break it in tomorrow.

if you have your manual it will tell you the stock settings, i dont remember them off hand but they were fairly close to where normal tuning should b at
