Have a Traxxas Revo that is running the RB 323 engine... During break-in there were no problems. Ran real well, nice power and speed. But lately, the ambient tempeture has cooled down, but it is not cold by any means... The engine takes forever to warm up. About the time it is up to a good temp it is about out of fuel. The engine runs the whole tank. Doesn't die at all... The engine was broken in correctly and has about 10 tanks through it... What is needed to fix this? Thanks

Whats the ambient temperature in your area? That can be a contributing factor to your problem. It also sounds like your tunning is a bit off, generally if you want a bit more temp, try to lean the engine out a bit.

If your running your body with open windows try plugging them, also you can lean out your motor slightly

Maybe the device you use to measure the temperature with is not accurate enough or malfunctioning.
Also if you make the needle adjustments, make 1/8th of turns only at one time.
