New to nitro so please forgive me


My starter box stalls when i try to turn over the engine - with no glow plug in. Am running it with 12v power supply is this not powerful enough? Also does anyone know what size flywheel is on a losi 8. The engine i have bought has a kyosho fitted is this the same size?

Where can i get a replacement wheel for an lrp starter?

Is the starterbox wheel rubbing on the chassis ?

Ive had to file out the hole where the fly wheel dips out of to get a connection to the wheel to actually turn the engine over..

Works fine now ;)

as Garry says, if you get a dremel nad the cutting disc, cut the chassis and make the hole bigger around the flywheel and cheak the rubber wheel on the starter box isnt rubing on the chassis then :)
