Zach,

My T-Maxx has been giveing me so many dam freaking problems that y'all
would get tired of me posting questions in here:)

But anyway,most of my problem's deal with keeping my nitro star .15
tuned.I can tune it 'right now' Run a few tanks of gas though it,shut it
off.pinch the fuel line. let the motor cool down,come back oh say a few
hours - days later and try to start it,,no go,wont start.take glow plug
out,pull pull cord few times,put glow plug back in,tug pull cord few
times.fires up,sit truck on the ground give it gas,,and it starts to
stu-stu-stu-studer then it just die's.so whats the problem?

ps.Im not good at tuneing,thats why i was looking for a good web site
that i could turn to.

Have you called the nitro techs at Traxxas about the T-Maxx?
888-TRAXXAS .

Is it the same fuel in the tank for days? If so, that may be part of
the problem.

yea i called them,back when it had their .15 on it. but now it has a HPI
nitrostar .15 on it.

No.when i get done running it i drain the tank,but most of the tyme i
run it dry.

Oh well,its in a good place right now.just boxed it up today.going to
store it.

Have you called HPI? I don't have direct experience with their
support, but I've heard when you do get through to them the techs seem
to know what they're doing.
