I recently bought a used t-maxx 2.5... I have been trying to get it started but, have had no success.. My ez start is not lighting up for the glow plug...Te bad part about it is , I have tried several glow plugs and other ez start wands... and nothing happens.. I checked the ez start wiring and they tested good... Any ideas????? I know the glow plugs are good and the wands have worked before...
can anyone help......
thanks chris

the quick solution would be to go get a glow plug wand, or pick up a hobby battery and a cheapie ignitor. its coming up on the winter months, so chances are you would want to be able to keep the gpi on while it warms...
well i do anyways.

what i do is, i use a glow plug, instead of using that blue wire. its faster and easier.

put the all the engine settings to factory and retune it from there. that should pop it over. if that doesnt work check glow plug, fuel tubing, and make sure your starter battery is fully charged.
