    Try buying a new glow plug and if it still doesnt work after that then reset the hsn and lsn it worked for me
    Hsn 4-6 turns out from closed
    Lsn flush with carburator
    Try that and if it still doesnt work then maybee think about gettin it repaired or buying another engine

    I had a similar problem with mine not wanting to start and when it would it would idle really strange, I had to buy a new carb because the idle screw stripped out in mine. I had also contacted traxxas support and they said it could also be my one way bearing cause if it stays engaged it will cause the motor to die. Mine did the same thing tho ran great then suddenly stopped wanting to run and then I replaced my carb and it fired right up and other than a little tuning that i need to do it hasnt given me a problem since.
