    Unhappy Wont Start

    My fuel in my line will not move to the carburator. I put a new gas tank on it and all new fuel lines and i ckecked my fuel filter. I dont no why it wont start. Please help. I called 1-888-traxxas and they said that i should clean my high speed needle. But how do you clean it and what do you use to clen and could that be my problem. Please help me.

    take the presure line off the pipe and the line off the carb, clean the outside of the presure line with a papertowel, then blow into it (inhale before you put your lips on to the line. if there is fuel comming out the other end then the line/tank/fuel filter are fine. next check the high speed needle, take it out and under a bright light look into it (both ends), it would also be a good idea to flush it out with some clean fuel.
    Everyday I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive.
