haHHAH. yes! finally. I made it to the intro. Taco Bell and Fuel line are my fav items for Nitros too, how'd you guess hahahah! And yes, nobody can take my nitros, never gonna happen, you're on point with that too!>. Ok time to watch now!!
The truck that started in all for me. I now have four of them. An original .15, 2.5, and 3.3. Bought a new 3.3 a couple of months ago. The Three originals all still run fantastic. Great video!
I had the 2.5 4tech then got the 3.3 t max. Tbf if it wernt for traxxas and the usability they brought to the average rc enthusiasts that maybe was hesitant to get into nitro. They made it feel a lot easier with there quick start rtr packages. Will always have a soft spot for a tmax even though I don't run nitro stuff anymore.
I hate when I put the wrong fuel in my rc. I keep all my bashers on 20 % and racing ones on 30%. Used to race at Jimmy's track out where your at..Another one is not switching the model on your transmitter, if your sharing multiple rigs. When I had a Jato about 10yrs ago, tuning was difficult. But when I got rid of the air leak on the backplate, it ran like a charm. I should of left it alone when I put a OS 18 tz on it. It was the perfect power to weight ratio with a metal cage. It's when I put an onroad 1/8 Mugen Seiki .21cc engine in it, is when the Jato and a parking block Eloped 😅. In a all the fun I forgot the brakes were just a little small composite disc.
And yes bro, the dog should be on a leash, you never know how they will react to noise RCs. In my experience they either chase them for fun or try to bite the tires off if you slow down enough, both have happened to me.
About the fuel changing, really not a big deal, as you just saw you only have to adjust the tune. But the switch itself cannot harm the motor. Only dirt and over heating can KILL it. BTW for increasing compression over time you will notice there are shims around the cooling head (once you remove the head), if you remove the shims you increase compression. I've never had to do it yet, but that's the logic with the head shims.
Crazy I just got my old one up and running after like 9 years the old o.s 15 ...yes a two speed..as well as my hpi evo and rs4 nothing like the sound and smell...yes your rig is sweet!!
Earl, those intro are funny. I hope everyone doesn't take it personal. Thanks for the information about the fuel. I bought my 3.3 used so I don't know what fuel they ran. I agree with you.
Love the sound of nitro,I agree on the fuel,I run 20% in all my Traxxas nitros and in my Kyosho.When they get worn out some I will switch to 33%.Great video brother.Been a subscriber for a long time now the videos keep getting better.Bring on the Jato
excellent content E..... although gas/nitro isn't my thing because the electric RCs are just more in my wheelhouse right now..... I'm sure its a lotta fun for sure ..... and as is your usual...... you put out Gr8 content for those who are into it ....Thanks for sharing......
When I came back to RC I purchased a on road nitro and it gave me fits tuning it. Loved the smoke and the sounds. But just couldn't keep it running on road to enjoy it so I went back to electric.
Sometimes it’s fuel causing tunning issues but once tuned there pretty fun to run specially with a two speed shift but I understand electric is for most people 💨💨👍👍
Had no clue their are different fuels. I hate when people don’t have their dogs on leashes. I have a huge fear of dogs, people only care about themselves, that’s super cool of you to think about the others at the park. Thanks for the content as usual
🙏thanks yes in public ppl don’t know if dogs are friendly or not and if it attacks the rc it would be a fight for damages as ppl don’t understand how expensive these toys are 💨💨😱💯
What a beautiful day, have the park all to yourself, sweet. In the open space the Nitro engine noise is not bad. I agree with others, a better quality fuel would make a big difference.
About your thing on that engine wear out Just don’t overheat them I don’t let them get over 220 at most whenever I run and if it’s traxxas engines then change the rod and wrist pin for new every gallon to keep them tight and strong like new
Yeah I'd like to see you run your Jato. I got mine out thanks to your videos. Fire's right up after setting for a few months. I have a losi carb on it and on my 3.3 revo and both are beasts. Awesome nitro videos, thanks for doing them.
great video Earl I love how you always show your mistakes so people don't make the same ones if they pay attention and watch your video all the way through💯👍👊
Also if u set idle gap to traxxas specs it will idle high and tune terribly. Set it to .7 mm and leave it alone. Make idle and the rest work with the needles.
Traxxas engines run pretty warm that's why they put a shit load of oil in the blue top fuel, if it's getting to hot you probably have an air leak , I got me a h.p.i savage and never looked back, had it for 14 yrs with hardly no issues at all running v.p. fuel 20% NM 14% oil I'm now on my 9th gallon of fuel through it
Loving the skits yes really funny, I think there brilliant... 😂🤣😂🤣...... Looks like there both running fine on the 20% I'd keep it clean with the same fuel no confusion then.... Yes the electric cars back with a vengeance. Great vid and I thought it you caught on fast with the fuel thing bud.
I would recommend watching jq racings video on tuning. He explains in detail how to tune with or without having the idle gap set properly(I watched his one and a half hour video and it helped me a lot!).
Right now I’m using 20% top fuel and when I burn through that I’m going to bones brew 20% nitro and 12% oil I think. I hear that traxxas top fuel has way to much oil in it and hurts the engine because of that. (Info came from The bug 404)
Well of course we want to see the Jato rip around. There all Great but Hybrid's is gotta be the best one yet lmao still. Keep them coming Earl 😎 👏👏👏👍👍💯🙏
Love nitro content! I’ve been running 30% bones for a year now and love it. Traxxas fuel has too much oil content for my liking. The intros are great I love them! Keep them up.
@@earlmoorhead5555 that’s terrible! I remember the videos with the infraction parts. I’m sure someone with racing roots can get their hand on nitromethane and methanol and make their own…
TNR ? Not sure I know that fuel bone brews great just my orders get stolen or not delivered to my door hate to loose a case of fuel like hybrid going threw right now 👀
Nice! I remember my T max back in the day doing that pop when sitting still a lot of times... I would stick with 20% I never used anything with more nitro content and my nitro engines lasted for ever and always ran great! using different fuels your going to mess up like you did probably all the time not worth the change of always messing up and re tuning all the time.
I agree love showing my mistakes hopefully no one will make them trying to use all my older fuels might not be worth the time and headache of blowing up an rc 💨💨💨🙏
t maxx 3.3 number one and nitro rustler number one and rustler vxl number one and 1/16 e revo vxl number one they all number one and they are best rc trucks ever made.
Okay , running one fuel I see is best until your engine/motor starts losing compression then go up in fuel . They looked good out there . Yeah I would like to see the Jato run and your dragster . Loved the video
Sounds to me like your low needle is a little lean. It's shouldn't spool up when coming off throttle. But that's just one man's opinion. Enjoying you nitro vids
First off intros are great! Super hilarious! Second off the mistake you made with putting in the 20% into the 3.3 actually gives a really good look at what the different nitro percentages do based off of a tuneup. Shows why sticking to the same nitro percentage really is a good idea so you’re not chasing your tail.
Yo Earl. Couple of brain pickers. 1. Do you use a lipo for reciever battery or AA battery’s? Lipo for start wand ??? Last. Start wand battery goes dead quick on mine. Thinking about cleaning all the gears and relube them. Lipo for start wand !!!!
I'm glad Traxxas still has the wheelie bar on the 3.3 T Maxx, they took it off the new jato's that really sucks IMHO. It's ok to change fuel ,definitely got to get away from the Traxxas fuel after break it has way to much oil in it. I'm going to try the nitro gangs fuel . Bones Fuel Baby! He Cracks me up and knows Nitro. Awesome videos on your 2 T maxx's Brother.
Absolutely love the intros. Still should open up the low speed needle just a little bit to get the idle to drop a little. As far as fuels goes, anything other than Traxxas fuel is preferred and yes you should stay with the same percentage of nitro fuel that you broke the engine in with.
It absolutely doesn't matter what percent or when. I can say with experience. If u know what you are doing. I've made car fuel from helicopter fuel and heat. It all works just as good if u tune it right. Just more power and rpms available with higher nitro content.
I know nothing about nitros but can you mix 20% and 30% 50/50 to make 25% and be a good happy medium? That's all that comes to my mind when I hear discussions about people's preferences using one or the other.
Mixing is definitely not going to be accurate every time but you can blend your own fuel to make your own nitro but as we are not racing fir every once of power safe fuel for me is better 💨💨💨💨👌
haHHAH. yes! finally. I made it to the intro. Taco Bell and Fuel line are my fav items for Nitros too, how'd you guess hahahah! And yes, nobody can take my nitros, never gonna happen, you're on point with that too!>. Ok time to watch now!!

A tip. Take the wheels off ground Rev it make adjustments. You will get in ballpark much faster.
Hey man, we all do it 😂 it’s awesome that your doing nitro!
great video Earl I love how you always show your mistakes so people don't make the same ones if they pay attention and watch your video all the way through💯👍👊
Thanks 🙏
Great video Earl I got the original t max with 3.3 swap and it rips. Have too say hate the pillups screws as well!! 👍🏻💯🤘🏻
Lol Mr Details sounds like house again.
I was running 2 different fuels but same as you got tired and switched to one mix and haven't had an issue.
Nice better with more than one nitro 💨💨💨
T-Maxx looks really fun. I can't decide between Revo, T-Maxx and Savage. But it's leaning towards the Revo after seeing a lot of videos of them all.
The Tmaxx Twitch 🤣🤣
Nothing can kill nitro. Nitrogang!
💨💨💨💨💪💪
I know you didnt mean to but it's a def learning point for alot of us still. Just to see what may happen. Both look good running 👍.
Also if u set idle gap to traxxas specs it will idle high and tune terribly. Set it to .7 mm and leave it alone. Make idle and the rest work with the needles.
Cool Videos Mr. Earl Sir. Thankyou

Thanks 🙏
Easy mistake to make, and you eventually realized what you'd done. Think we all have them days lol. Great vid earl 👌
Different fuel wont damage, just needs to retune, which u did. So all good brother
Yes 👍 trying to compress to much fuel could have damage the weak connecting rods on some rc cars 💨💨💨💨😱

No nothing like an electric
Your killing me with these intros 🤣🤣🤣

Are you using the red dot to point at where your looking for temp 🤪
Nope just checking the sun temperature 🔥😂😂

I've always had better luck on 20% myself
How long do you run on 20% before they start to lose compression? When you switch to 33% how long do you run before you need to replace the motor? 👍👍
Depending on dirt that get passed the fuel filter and air filter and the conditions you run your rc cars in
