Traxxas engines run much hotter than "normal" engines (O.S., ASP,
Thundertigre, etc.). Therefore, Traxxas recommends
their Top Fuel (TRAP5010) and their glow plug (TRAG3230)
to run the engine cooler.
REPLACING EZ STARTER WITH STANDARD RECOIL STARTER
To convert the EZ-Starting system to a standard "pull-starter",
purchase TRAG4070 take out the three bolts on the EZ-Starter,
and install recoil starter.
