my englin on my tmaxx wort start..well it will start and run only if i have the gas about half way open, then when i let it off it quits, i would say i have ran about a gallon or two of gas through it, the compression is alrgiht, there still is some but not THAT much. i was thinking that it was time for a new pistion and sleve but i am seeing if anyone else has any other ideas on what is going on. oh and i just bought a new carb for it also.
