EVO speed/stuttering problem

Post by stampede_dude »

I have searched, and found a fix by ph2t, but I want to make sure im correct. When I use my truck, when i go into reverse it stutters,sometimes it doesnt move at all, and when i go forwards after using reverse, it also stutters. The wheelies CJ mentions arent near possible, I dont have much of any torque at all. Can I lock my differential with glue and solve this problem?

depends what you mean by "stutter". is it an electronic thing or is it a mechanical "gears slipping" kinda stutter?
if it's an electronic prob locking the diffs won't help.
i used to be cool

It seems to be a mechanical problem, because when i pick it up, it does fine. I bought it returned, but it didnt seem to do this at the start, and once she gets going she doesnt stutter as much but about once every 2 or 3 feet when at full speed. I dont really want to replace the electronics, but I don't know of any electronic interference that could be happening, I am using the stock motor. Thanks for your help.

I've been having this exact same problem with my truck, when I pick it up it works fine, forwards and reverse but on the ground it wont reverse or it will go an inch then stop, etc.
