    My 2 XBs won't start.

    Thanks! Just checked out the website and going to place an order for their fuel line kit with the optional brass fittings, also those clear tubes and some solid ones as well. I am assuming that itll work on XBs even though its "made" for the hpi baja 5T and so forth.

    I have searched ebay for those fuels lines but what mostly comes up are the black ones or the stock version tank assembly. I want to install clear ones on mines. Is there a specific brand or name i need to be looking for?

    Thanks Designed2Survive for your response I will try your procedure. I failed to include on my post, while i was pulling on the pull cord it became harder and harder to pull, at times i can only get it up to about halfway on the length of the pullcord without raising the rear ends of my cars...
