i just put a new OBR 31.8 engine in my losi, I was just wondering if it should be really stiff when you first start running it. I no it should be stiffer due to higher compression but I feel like I'm gonna rip my arm off when trying to start it. Is there anything to do to fix it.
 
Pull the spark plug and see it it gives any resistance to turning over. If it does something is wrong. If it's doesn't then there's nothing you can do to make it easier.
 
Watch this (starts at 9mins 10)
It's Dan O'Neil starting one of his (OBR) motors and you can see the resistance from the high compression when he tries to start it.
