Hey guys,
My Dad and I have been working on a trouble we have had for about a month now.

What happened was, We were at our local race meet and all of a sudden, it stopped and wouldn't run again. So we swapped out the motors and the same thing happened.

It has done the same for the 4+ motors that we have put in it. We have got a brand new one in there right now.

We have replaced the glow plug a few times and same with the fuel line. We have put a new tank in as well. We bought new fuel to eliminate that as a possible cause.

We have turned every screw every direction and are completely lost. There will be times when it runs perfect. We shut her off and don't touch a thing. When we start it in 2 mins time. Its gone again.

It seems to be cutting out at the top end and if left idle too long
(Edit: It will rev up on the starter box but ass soon as I put it on the ground it wont go.)

Edit: Engine is an Orange Alpha. If it helps the car is a Mugen MBX6
Any help if greatly appreciated,
