Time Magazine Online Subscription
whats wrong with my nitro rc car?
I built this car years ago from a magazine subscription and gave up trying to make it work at the time but now iv pulled it out from the cuboard to give it another go as it cost allot at the time, i know it was a rip off! but thats in the past. the problem im having is that whentrying to start it up the engine appears to run fine until i remove the glow starter and it shuts off, iv tried playing around with the settings on the high and low end needle but to no evail, could the glow plug be faulty it does glow and start the engine. I have 10 and 15% nitro fuel at my disposal. I am no expert at this and would be extreemely greatfull if someone could help, below is the only information i could find online about the car- a link to the mag subscription site

According to my teenage son, who knows much more about this than me!, the glow plug should be left in for about 5 – 10 mins., especially in this cold weather, with the control set on trim, or tick over, so the engine gets fully warm. They are quite tempremental and do not like the cold. Hope this helps.
