You need to use a business card to gap your flywheel and ignition! And you need a gasket between your intake insulator manifold and carb! If you dont for sure you will idle problems because there will be a air leak! Great video! That noise could be your ignition is hitting your flywheel since you didn't use a gap between it!

There is a gasket between the manifold and carb…the noise was a bolt that was caught on the flywheel…all is good now

Nice to see a little 5th scale content, It's seems like the market for general name brand 5th scales are dying down except for HPI as they just came back out with the 5B (Gas and Flux kits) last year but Losi hasn't had the 5ive-T in stock for months currently they say it's on backorder. I currently have put my plans for a 5ive-T on hold since i'm currently busy working on my XO-1 and planning to get an Arrma Felony or Limitless V2. But maybe someday i'll come back to a 5ive-T like truck.

Yeah the 1/5th scale content is really what started my channel….that sounds like a good plan! Especially if the Losi is hard to get ahold of currently

I had similar issues. I changed out the carb with a new one, didn’t fix it. I discovered one of the fuel lines inside the tank was broken. Put a whole new setup on and problem solved!

Yeah sometimes it’s not the most obvious fix

You need to check the gap between the flywheel and coil anytime you take the coil off.

Hey RC Knockout, nice video i am sure you are gonna fix the rest, you did a really good job repairing this car for me its a little of a mystery why it does not run 100% perfect yet. Greetings from Denmark 👋

Great to see the Baja back! 😎 where did you get the coil from?

@RCKnockout 5 ай бұрын

Yeah I’m looking forward to getting it out! I’m pretty sure I got it on EBay

You need to do 5 papers gap between flywheel and ignition coil

@RCKnockout 5 ай бұрын

I’ll have to look that up…not sure how to adjust the coil and flywheel gap

@rossstafford4531 5 ай бұрын

It could be also your gasket that holds the head on it could’ve lifted up a little and allowing air that could be another problem or you could have something small floating inside your engine. I’ve got a pull my girlfriends Baja down I think that might be the same problem Keep your videos coming mate I enjoy them but could you do a little bit more on the Baja please 👍🏻🇦🇺

@RCKnockout 5 ай бұрын

Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to look into that to see if the gasket between the head and engine case is the problem

@eddierivera8910 5 ай бұрын

check your coil to flywheel clearance.

Hi mate, I was just wondering if you could do more on the 1/5 Baja scale I have several of them and it’s hard to get any content on some stuff about them that you’re looking for the trouble you’re having with yours is the same trouble I have with my Girlfriend Baja, can you do some more videos on the Baja mate 👍🏻🇦🇺

@RCKnockout 5 ай бұрын

I’ll try to make more Baja videos! Definitely will try to once this one’s back in tip top shape 👍😉

@rossstafford4531 5 ай бұрын

No worries mate thanks very much good luck with the Barger and it’s good that I came across your KZfaq videos. I’ve been with you now for awhile. You give good tips about things but it’s good that you’re gonna do a bit more on the badger and Barjar videos good luck, and have a good one mate. 👍🏻🇦🇺
