Need help starting my nitro bas boat please?

Question

it's band new it has a .15 engine on it Dolphin Nitro RC Hydro Sport Boat i can't get it to start the carb must be all messed up or maybe the gas is wrong or the glow plug i don't know but it did start for like 3 sec then never after that.

Answer 1

Check your glow plug, even if it's new they burn out real easy. If the plug is OK, try a light spray of ether in the carb as you try to start it. If it then runs, the problem is a fuel line or maybe a fuel line shut off valve that is not opened or the air vent is closed in the fuel system.

Answer 2

What glow plug?Glow plugs are on diesel engines.

   Now we need to know the horse power,year and make of the engine.
