Very informative video, I plan to buy a 5T 2.0 next year and i've been watching your old videos of yours so i can learn how to run and maintain my truck when i hopefully get it next year. I hope i don't have any serious issues with mine but since i watched this video i now know how to strip and rebuild a small engine carburetor. Cheers from OKC.
Hi, i just wanted to say thanks for the video. My 5T had problems starting and after watching this, was able to strip/clean & rebuild the carb, to which it started on 5 pulls! 👍🏼
Great video. Many are afraid to take apart stuff that isn't farmiliar. Now you showed them its easy If they take there time. Imagine buying that rc..then searching youtube for a video on how to clean the carb. I do that a lot when fixing my real life cars and truck. TH-cam is awesome for that and people like you are the reason why. 👍😎
Love that spark plug cleaner ! Great video , it's great watching & learning about gas rc's from you because you show most everything a newbie needs to know !
i love my losi 5t 2.0, Issues ive had so far upto 13 tanks; all four shocks started leaking by tank 2 while running in on flat ground, fixed under warranty and leaked again straight away, clutch bolts came loose at tank 7 and 1 snapped off, damaging clutch bearings, replaced clutch bearings and bolts, rear left wheel bearings seized up, replaced. front centre dog bone pin half gone, drive cup will need replacing too. chassis is slightly bent about 3 or 4mm, shes fine tho. Wt 1107 stock carbie needs replacing as air leaking thru throttle shaft (throttle shaft moves a lot) ordered bearing mod carb. manifold leaking issues x 3, replaced manifold and gaskets., fouled 4 plugs until tuned right by simon from Olimat engineering and running 28/1, replaced pullstart string, . i bash super hard, huge jumps and crashes the body is 100 percent ok as i dry wall taped and shoo gooed the wole thing,
I've had to rebuild the carb on my 5ive T but I just put a new plug in it and it usually starts up good. Stale gas is usually the culprit with most of my small engines. I've been using Sea Foam gas treatment in the gas and that helps. Nice video 👍
Great video earl 👌 love cleaning up a carb. Don't often get to do it anymore. Why it's also important to clean the fuel tank cap before taking off to re fill . Love the old plug cleaners, not used one for years 😂 used to be a regular thing, now we just replace em. Shame.
Carburetors are like black magic 😂 You’re right, though. Just open it up! Worst that can happen is it still won’t run. Looks good to go now… time to send it! 😎
I just purchase the Desert Buggy 2.0 but thinking of changing my order to the 5ive 2.0 due to the bad reviews and quality issues I've read. Do you have both? And if so what would be your pick?
Down to earth kinda guy who loves rc's and sharing his knowledge, has a voice for videos, finally someone we can understand.
👍👍
Thanks Earl, keep up the good work, I've subscribed to your videos, look forward to the next ones.

You should start your idle from 50% throttle & 50% break
Love these videos

5t definitely a better rc and reliability is on point 👍
@@earlmoorhead5555 5ive is what you mean the 2.0 version with 32cc? I just called to try and change my order but the manager is out.
Damn 😱
Hey Earl can you recommend a throttle servo for the dbxl k&n version?
Thanks for your input i needed that 😮
Good 👍👍👍video all way Good 💯is on the 🎱ball
Thank you so much.
Earl what do you think about changing it to electric.
For me I won’t as I only have a couple 2 stroke rc cars
I know this is off subject but do you know if fireteam center diff will work in Mojave I keep blowing the stock one out.
Yes
@@earlmoorhead5555 thanks for your help

Air filter screen ? I wash it
