Hello Friends,

I just bought a 2013 NH 4 seat Rustler 125 with 120 hours. I have a lot of difficulty with two items. The first is the shifting from FWRD and Reverse. It is just too hard (my wife could not do it period) and I feel like I am going to damage something. I know the RPMs have to be low to facilitate this. Might sitting a few years with low activity be the cause? Any idea how I fix it?

Second issue is the engine...It stalls out so easily, it was 85 here in Buffalo yesterday and I still had issues starting and keeping the engine running, particularly when I was trying to shift from N to F/or R.

Has anyone had any experience with this model...the dealer who dropped it off does not seem concerned in the least but I feel like I am going to break something...

thanks!
