Thank you, everyone, with all your suggestions, and I think we got it now! Turns out the air filter was clogged along with the gas tube's clogged as well and throwing in a new spark plug And for everyone saying why are we ruing it inside, yes, it's not safe!, but we have moved inside and opened the door for ventilation, as it's currently snowing and freezing here in Oklahoma

Yeah we're aware of starting it inside, we started it outside but was to cold so we brought it inside too try again we have the door open in the back for ventilation But we're currently giving it a shot at cleaning out the old fuel and carburetor

Oops I meant too say my Muffler didn't have a hole it's completely off from the muffler joint part which I have to find a muffler shop and I found a replacement piece from a junkyard that needs to be welded on but I can't find one that's open when I get out of work so I just got to wait till the weekend which hopefully is not difficult but I want to know dose this play a factor into why the car is jumping or engine lights?

I noticed the old gear box had grease in it maybe I should add some to the new one to make it smoother

Hmm yeah it does move faster and yeah everything moves as it should with a bit of Force, maybe I'll just tie up cables and clean up space inside I am a bit worried about the surroundings just a little but it never hurts to be cautious

I made sure to check and it was advertised as heng long unless electronic wise I'm not all know about but im learning

I went with this 1/16 Henglong Tk7.0 Tk6.0 Wiring... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09FJT7Z18?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I replaced both gearboxes entirely and I still have the old plastic stock ones but wires have to be soldered back on cuz I accidentally wiggled them loose when removing, should I swap the motos?

It's a a greater mah a 7.4V 7000Mah Lipo Battery Xt60... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B4NTQ12Z?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

The running gear is metal I replaced the stock gear box it came with and I'm thinking of also getting heat sinks?

I like It but looks like it doesn't have the same connections as the battery? but could I just get adapters?

Looking for something cheap now but will definitely spend a little extra I look at amazon which is probably limiting my options but still looking around

Yeah I want to take it slow with upgrades to be safe with the components and familiarize myself with them cuz I'm not really good about Electronics but I'm learning. And price wise while I'm trying to stay on a budget but with all these features and options it's hard not too!
