300X stutters at wide open and quit once

[Dave Strong]

Jay Smith told me to clean and expand the pins on the cannon plug on the motor. I did that and gooped it up with dielectric grease no problems since. Now my drag on my Ally XR02 started doing it, the dagon stinking pins on that plug ate too small to expand so i tried to squeeze in the female side. Need to have my wife cycle the key wile i wiggle the plug to see if i got it before i take it out. The pump sounds much better now. If it doesn't work i will bypass the plug and solder the wires. I know all about the hook did it once about 70 mph and made about a 9G turn. I know it would be instant death if that fuel pump quit at the speeds i like to drive it.

Razor or xacto knife should work.

Did that fix the problem? I have a similar issue.

Yes it fixed the problem on the X, has been running fine for over a season now. I could wiggle the plug on the side of the drag and get the fuel pump to cut out so i did the same thing and last trip it worked fine. I want to get a few more runs in this year to check it out but it is getting cold. I try to run through November on nice days,but when it warms up to the 50's it is usually windy so that ruins things.

That’s great. I’m going to check mine.
