Default dtx 18

i know that this is a duratrax engine but it says its made by o.s.

ever since i got my nitro evader it has been giving me problems. i would start it up fine and then the next tank it would start at full throttle for no reason. i soon found out that the copper nut(low speed needle) was loosend up and was not letting the carb open and close. so it stuck at full throtle. i fixed that and now it has stayed ever since i tightend it. i have only gotten about 4 tanks through it so i still have some break in to do.

is there any tips you can give me on it so i dont have problems starting it and haveing it go at full throtle when its supposed to be at idle?

my throtle trim is all set up right so i know its not that.[]

If you'll send an email to Hobby Services, a complete article on tuning the DuraTrax engine can be sent to you.
