Thanks :)

I know I'm late, but this is the most informative video I have watched on this subject!

Thank you for clarifying the use of these adjustments. I'm new to nitro RC cars and have one for my grandson. He is eager to start and run it. The hobby shops charge a fee to help with these matters. Your advice is extremely helpful and valuable.

Your tuning videos were... het..hem... are, 2nd to none! Hope your doing great! 👍

mine has lasted 6 years and on average i use it once a week and the engine is still running strong

Nice video man!! Im new to this hobby and dont want to blow my engine but wit your guidance in dis video I dont think that is possible! Nice Work Again and Thankz

another good one JT...keep it up..

just got a Revo 3.3 used and I found that had to set the LSN then the HSN and after I got the HSN correct I had to readjust the LSN for idle rpm point. after that the thing pops right off every time. worm or cold. the guy I got it from had the HSN 3x richer then it should have been and the idle and throttle control set way to high just to keep it running. what a goof

Your videos are very helpful, very clear and most of all, go right into the subject, thanks

hey JT, good vids man, lots of help... love ur work. i have a question... my nitro engine chews glow plugs. on a good day, ill use 1 glow plug per tank of nitro.. pretty crazy. do u know if a rich/lean running engine will cause the element in the glow plug to get deformed and look like its been sucked or pushed back into the plug itself? hard to picture i know, if u want a picture i can link/upload an example of 1 of my glow plugs. thanks heaps and keep up the useful nitro tips!

what way do i turn it when i want to increase the speed of my car, i have a revo 3.3. left or right?

Your the man !

hi I'm new to this is 25% fuel ok with this engine? thanks in advance love the videos been learning a lot thanks mate

If my engine is revving to high right away, and running off when I start it which screw should I turn and in which direction

will you make a video on the idle speed needle ,and how to tune it.

The HSN controls air and fuel mix from Partial (around half) to full throttle. LSN is idle speeds and low speed driving

TheRCBiker hi, I have a thunder tiger pro 15 engine. It’s old but starts fine. It just gets way too hot to the point it loses power and cuts off at about 2 min of running it. It’s so hot water boils on the engine top. Do you have any recommendations on what’s wrong? Thanks

best.voice.ever. OF ALL TIME.

Awsome man what kind of car is this?

You help me really well in low speed lean and rich video

很好的教學

I am watching this video so many times just so that I can remember all if it. My buggy usually Boggs down at half throttle, usually shuts off.

I'm new to nitro and my truck just would not work. Wouldn't start. I got it started but run and sounded all wrong. after watching this short video I think Im nearly there . a massive thank you. good job

NICE!

IT SOUNDS QUICK AND SNAPPY NICE !!!

OMG😂😂😂😂😂 I WASN'T LOOKING AT MY PHONE WHEN HE WAS WARMING UP THE ENGINE, AND THOUGHT HE WAS TALKING 😂😂😂😂😂

Air and fuel are two different things. Which one are you asking about?

You saved my hpi savage xl octane thanks

nice cheers

you shown show in both adjustments extreme situations in tunning ! what happens in each case!

Where did you get your glow starter with the Lipo battery from and what size Lipo

to increase air fuel which way do i turn the needle? left or right?

well done, really good video,,:) and remember about 50% of your cooling comes from the the air/fuel mix. So if it runs lean, it gets too hot and the motor wont like it;) or even die:(.. have fun:)

thanks for your videos.. i have mgt 8.0..and the engine wont star at all.. i think there's no fuel going into the engine,cause plug is good. dont know what to do. help me please.

I saw in one of your vids you briefly mention something to stop the RC from running away, can you tell me how to stop this?

Hey..im a fan. I just got a traxxas nitro rustler and im using your vids once I complete my break in. I just wasnt sure what that ideal idle sound was suppose to be as you set the idle needle. Do you want it as lean as possible without it dying? Same clockwise to lean counter clockwise to richen applies on idle needle? Thanks

Very nice vid. It would be nice if you make a vid, wich shows the bad hsn, and lsn setups both the lean and the rich sets. Because the car you go with is almost have the right tune but most of us how try to tune have very wrong sets. So it would be more helpfull i think. Thx.

the cogs that turn the drive shaft on the engine are they so post to move back and fourth

where can i get one of those glow plug igniters in australia?

great video mate however I need some more info and you may be the man for the job. I have a ftx frenzy bought from a friend that broke it in correctly but then messed the carb settings up completely. in now runs like a bag of spanners if at all. I have the manufactures instructions however they don't tell you the factory settings for any of the needles. I am happy with the location of the high speed needle and the low speed needle. the engine bogs down and quits just after idle????? any ideas

What does the high needle do compared to the low?

I was always taught to tune the LSN first. Using a pinch test, engine should run 3-5 seconds max. Only then can you tune the HSN.

If my car bogs out when on full throttle do I need to go clockwise or anticlockwise

Hi there , I have the basher sabertooth truggy with .28 engine and I'm having trouble tuning the LSN , it blows heaps of smoke so I lean it 1/8th turn and the idle just gets so out of wack , I try and adjust the idle every turn until the acceleration was really good but the revs hang after throttle , I can't seem to get the idle right ?

I bougth a Carson vírus. When i vive power the car runs nicelly but When i break it turns off. Wich needle do i have to set? Thanks

What needle helps start your nitro car easier because my nitro buggy does nit start to easy

whats up JT, i have a problem with the start up,any tips how to set the carborator? and another think,iam like pulling say 50 times to get the first start up and when i remotely trothle it shuts off.....why?

My rc keeps cutting out when I accelerate and it takes ages to start is the low speed needle to lean or rich

If when im driving my nitro Tmaxx Or revo an when ez start wire falls off that connects to glow plug An car shuts off that means car isn’t tuned right

thanks your vid helped me out my bullet 3.0 mt is running much better

What about tuning a RC drag car engine???im new to sport need help tuning.

hi, when l start mine the wheels go round please what could it be, thanks

Ik this is was made a while ago but I have a problem with my metal spur gears constantly stripping out on my tornado s30 do you think you can help me?

Which needle makes it do wheelies at high speeds?

good work mate, hey you dont wanna swap cars do you ;)

I know have a sledge hammer s50 it's got low high and a mix metering screw you tune hi and low then a just your mix screw is 8.2cc engine, you should do one on a 3 screw engine with a mix screw

Is he tuning it 1/8th of a turn counterclockwise from the default settings?

what is the differnse between the high and low needal

GS RACING 18 .ENGINE Adjustment adjusting???thenks

What about VP PowerMaster fuel? I run a T-Maxx 2.5 with the original TRX2.5 on VP master basher 20% nitro with 14% synthetic/castor blend. Is that too much oil? Also I use 2 different exhaust systems. My stock plastic tuned exhaust system and a RD Logics twin outlet rear exhaust (RDL61515P). I broke it in (had it taken to HobbySports in Portage, MI TWICE since it wasn't shifting into 2nd gear at all and had it tuned on Cooper's 20% nitro [didn't say the oil content/package but it was hot pink in color] and ran it 1 gallon on Fantom Performance Blend 20% nitro (strawberry colored & don't know the oil content/package wither), 2nd gallon was Traxxas 20% nitro (blue colored), my third gallon, which I'm on now is the VP PowerMaster's Master Basher 20% with 14% synthetic/castor package purple colored. My engine has hit 405 degrees FAHRENHEIT without the body with the dual exhaust installed using this fuel. It runs best @ 290-320 degrees with the stock plastic exhaust system installed body on or off when in perfect tune. The engine still runs, glow plug is still intact, and piston/sleeve feels plenty tight (more than tight enough to pinch my fingers after performing after run maintenance). What's wrong with it? This is my first Nitro model (which I plan on installing a TRX 3.3 in once the 2.5 gives up or I run out of fuel).

can someone help i have a exceed nitro forza with .18 motor just bought when trying to start for first time it"s RTR , fuel comes out of exhaust pipe what am i doing wrong any suggestions

I LOVE THE INTRO BEAT MUSIC
