 Re crashed FOX

 Although the tank isn't in the optimum position, with silencer presure it
 should be perfectly ok..

 I have a really old Webra 60 that has so little compression that you can 
 barely fee it when you turn the prop over. I use it all the time in a 
 Wot4 and it runs fine, probably not a powereful as it once was but more
 than adequate for the Wot4... So discount lack of compression....

 It's obviousy only running on the fuel you're squirting in the carb.. The 
 needle settings shouldn't be that critical to get the engine running, albeit
 not very well. So close to the manufacturer's setting should get be ok..
 set the throttle half open, then you really only have to worry about the
 main mixture needle...

 Are you sure the spraybar area is clear?... I would fill up the tank, remove
 the spraybar and with one filler line blocked off blow down the other and
 make sure fuel comes out of the carb.. Although I haven't seen a fox motor,
 I would be surprised if the needle valve should have a bit of metal on the
 end, it should be a smooth taper to a point...

 One final thing, is it a new tank?  I've often seen the clunk thrown 
 forward in a crash. This kinks the fuel line and you don't get any fuel 
 flow...

cheers
