i have the revo with the 2.5R motor - 200 is too low of a temp - Did she shut off because of high temp - Did the idle race up and down before shutting down ? - i know that temps are ok when in the upper 200's - 300 is a bit high - i would say recheck all connections - make sure you didnt put a small hole in the fuel tubing - take apart stretch and plug one end and blow into the other - both lines from tank to pipe and tank to motor. Make sure your carb is not loose - make sure that you have no exhaust leaks - that will make you run lean quick. Do a once over on her - and retune it for about 260 or 280 - try that and keep an eye on it - I also had a problem with my RB .21 motor - the rubber gasket on the high side needle valve went bad - kept screwing in - hotter hotter - till we figured it out - check and make sure this is not a problem.. Youll figure her out....


Hows that "Hope and Change" working out for Ya???
