OK. I can't get this dang thing to move.

The motor revs high and barely moves.

The flywheel is plenty tight. It's not something else in the drivetrain. I'm at a total loss. I tried a differnt CB too.

Well I know they are getting close to needing new ones. But I thought I would be able to get at least another 1/2 gallon. I can stop by LH tomorrow and grab a new set and see if it helps.

It moves but very slowly while the motor is revving. The spur spins, but not fast like somethign on the drivetrain is slipping, and its not binding.

like its too big and it isnt holding onto the crank all the way or it is spun inside the flywheel it self, just make sure everything looks normal and that u are able to keep it from turning

I checked all that. It starts fine on the box and I can shut it off from the flywheel. I thought it was the collet at first because it looked the gap was pretty big, but I don't think its that.

new springs wouldn't hurt. Make sure you get the KHZ or new Losi "blue" shoes. Both of those should last you a good while (like 3-4 galllons with regular maint.)
