      Calvin GreeneAug 16, 2025
      If your Xray Motorized Toy Car engine starts but then stalls, it could be due to a few reasons. The fuel tank might be empty, so ensure it's filled. Clogged fuel lines, fuel filter, air cleaner, or muffler could also cause this issue; clean or replace any clogged parts. An improperly adjusted carburetor can also lead to stalling; readjust the idle and main/slow needle adjusting screw. Lastly, the engine might have overheated; allow it to cool down and open the main needle adjusting screw 30° turn richer (CCW).

      If your Xray Motorized Toy Car is hard to control, it may be due to weak transmitter or receiver batteries; try recharging or replacing them. Low reception from the radio antennas could also be the cause; ensure that both the transmitter and receiver antennas are fully extended. Also, check if the servo linkages are not adjusted properly; move the servo to neutral and then re-adjust the linkages.

    How to fix Xray XB8 Motorized Toy Car that does not drive straight?
    • D
      desiree65Aug 28, 2025
      If your Xray Motorized Toy Car isn't driving straight, several factors could be the cause. A binding suspension can cause the car to pull to one side; make sure the suspension moves freely and replace any worn or broken parts. If the steering trim is off-center, the car may veer to one side; adjust the steering trim until the car drives straight. Loose wheels can also cause this issue; check to make sure the wheel nuts are properly tightened. A damaged steering servo can also affect the car's ability to drive straight; check the steering servo for damage and wear, and replace or repair it if necessary.
