starting problem          OFNA Nitro Talk Back Forum Forum Index -> Ravager View previous topic :: View next topic   Author Message mdy120 Joined: 08 Oct 2007 Posts: 93 Posted: Wed Jan 30, 2008 10:55 am    Post subject: starting problem Ravager – Force 28. My son was driving and we had the mixture a little rich. He stalled it when he hit a bump a little too hard and flipped over. When I tried to start it on the starter box the flywheel would not turn. I took the plug out and turned a few turns on the starter and it blew some fuel out. When I put the plug back in it would still lock up. I took the engine out and finally got the flywheel to turn and tried to make sure any excess fuel was out. Again on the starter box it will turn when the plug is out but when I put the plug in it locks up. Any advice on what I need to do?

Would changing those settings help me to get it to turn on the starter box or should I look inside to check the con rod, etc. Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         OFNA Nitro Talk Back Forum Forum Index -> Ravager All times are GMT - 9 Hours Page 1 of 1 Jump to: Select a forum OFNA COMMUNITY----------------General DiscussionFavorite Racing & Bashing SpotsPositive OFNA FeedbackJobs At OFNA OFNA ELECTRIC ON-ROAD----------------On-Road Lounge1:10 Electric Sedan1:8 Electric SedanBrushless Motors & ESC Info OFNA ELECTRIC OFF-ROAD----------------Off-Road LoungeJammin 1:10 Electric SCHyper 1:10 Electric SC1:8 Electric SC/Truggy/BuggyBrushless Motors & ESC info OFNA NITRO ON-ROAD----------------On-Road LoungeDM-ONE & GTPHyper One SevenHyper GPX4CD3LD3 OFNA NITRO ENGINES----------------Engine LoungeHyper EnginesPicco EnginesForce EnginesJL Engines OFNA NITRO OFF-ROAD----------------Off-Road LoungeHyper Short Course NitroHyper 9 ProHyper 8 & 8.5 Pro & RTRHyper ST TruggyHyper 7Jammin Buggy & Truggy/Mini Pro & RTRUltra MBX Comp SeriesMutilator TruggyDirt OvalUltra LX SeriesRavager9.5 Buggy SeriesBlazer SSTTitanMonster Pirate OFNA PIT TIPS LIBRARY----------------OFNA Pit Tips  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum
