I had just purchased a kyosho mp7.5 and I set the needles to factory settingsor atleast what the manual said was factory settings. The thing is running rich as hell. I mean like I can pour fuel out of the exhaust. Is this normal and is it normal to have to adjust alot to get the motor in tune. Also I can't seem to keep the motor running, at idle or if I burp the throttle it will kill it, also I can seem to get the motor started unless I feed the carb a little fuel first. Are all these things normal until the motor is in tune?
On another note, are there tell tale signs that somethings not right? Like to much smoke is some normal? Should I use that after run oil? On the needles does clockwise = leaner and counter = richer? It seems that way. Sorry about all the newb questions but it my first nitro car and I am just kinda learning as I go. Thanks in advance.
