Took my TT out for the first time today. Used coleman fuel and 32:1, 2 stroke oil. Took several minutes of pulling and holding the throttle wide open but it sputtered to life and stayed at idle without dying. After a few boggy passes, it started warming up and able to really hit higher rpms. I got about 1/4 way thru the first tank and stopped it so my daughter could take a pic of it. When I went to take off again, it wouldn't move. It was like the brake was locked up. So I shut it down and took it home. I thought maybe the trans gears melted already, but they are still good and spin. When you try to push the buggy forward or backward it doesn't want to go. It's binding. Something loose in the front or rear diffs?? I didn't even run it that hard really. No jumps just open parking lot. I'd dig in to it but I gotta be at work soon. So I thought I would see what you guys think.
 
I had one where the brake adjustment screws were loose and had to be CA glued into the plastic mount. It is the 2 set screws that push against the metal brake pads, that go through the bearing holder. I will try and get a manual and circle the screws.
