i bought a nitro hammer by aquacraft and i am having some problmes. first i dont understand the high speed needel thing. i set it to 3 turns out. i am not shure if that is good.also my boats seems to have a mind of its own.in the middle of running it will just speed up and i wont have much comtrole. i dont know what that is all about. and one more thing sometimes ill have trouble pulling the recoile and on the glowplug alot of fule will start pouring out.i dont know if it is because my engine is flooded. the glowplug is on tight so i dont know what is rong.

thanks

is there a little fibre washer around the glowplug. as fuel should not come out around the glow plug as this means that the cylinder is not sealed and u would loose compression.

ok thanks i am new to rc groups so i wasent shure.

the washer between the glowplug and the engine wasent there but i am not shure how it was running...

Do u think i can use a regular washer if i find the right size or do i have to order one?

A fibre washer? It's been years since I've touched a model engine but I remember that glow plugs having copper washers.

Just go buy a pack of new glow plugz. Without the washer the piston could contact the plug. And you'll have to make friends in yoru area to help you learn to tune an engine its not an easy thing to teach over the internet.
