Problem with my carb

[justbart2002]

I have the next problem: In the first half of the tank everything is ok , after that the problem begines. When i brake the engines tends to choke after that the idle is ok. If i let it be it idels ok , i tried the LSN no luck with that, I have shortend the fuel line from tank to carb no luck, i have putted a longer one no luck with this either. I have tried retuning all car and nothing (i didn't had this problem in the begining , the car is almost new i have used just 3 litres i think is 3/4 galons of fuel)
What do you think i should do...this is my first nitro car so i don't really know where to look.
I think that i shoud try to tune it and seal the neadels, i've read that many people do this maybe it will help me.

Cheers

Sounds like you may need to adjust the idle setting, Just enough so when you brake it doesnt kill the engine. It may be also the your low speed is off.Good Luck

So if the idle is set to high it's posible to act like this...and i have to lower it till the edge of not killing my engine?

The idle setting will keep the carb from closing when brake is applyed try turning in alitte bit see if the problem continues. Also look in the carb and check yuor carb opening w/ brake applyed it should remain as is.

I have found the problem...it was the HSN..it was way too lean. The thing was that i was making a mistake ...when i was tuning the LSN the idle was decresing (when leaning LSN) and instead of turning the idle i was leaning the HSN...
The thing was that i have started from factory settings and succeded.
I have a question now...my glow plug has a dark brown colour..what is this colour meaning? And i have to wait for the glow plug to die or i have to change it after a while?

If the plug is dark burned look by th element, probably want to replace it. Maybe richen the settings a little.
