You might be. Before starting it everyday, try taking out the glowplug and doing the steps to clearing a flooded engine.

Also, Its not good to hold the ezstart on. Its meant for short bursts. It also could be out of fuel and need to prime by holding finger over stinger for a few seconds then letting off.

I have ran my EZ start for over a minute with no ill effects. It is just an electric motor.

Well for one thing if you use this truck every day there is no need to use after run oil,unless you have some kind of strange fuel your using, your engine will never be harmed over night

Well how often do you suggest putting it in.It is called after run oil !

I only use after run for long term storage. WD-40 the rest of the time.
Seems to start easier with the WD.

There is your answer, and if you are using traxxas fuel, the container even says it is formulated so that you don't have to use after run oil except for long term storage.
