This is the ProTek R/C Nitro Starter Set. This package includes many of the critical accessories that are required to get your nitro vehicle running, including a ProTek Fast Fill 500cc fuel bottle, a SureStart rechargeable glow ignitor, a large 5-way wrench, a small 4 way wrench, as well as a small flat head screwdriver and a small Phillips head screwdriver.
The Fast Fill fuel bottle’s 500cc graduated reservoir holds enough fuel to last a long main event, while the super soft material makes it easy to fill your tank quickly. At 4.5″ the blue-anodized spout is long enough to reach through any opening and find the tank. A rubber cap is included to prevent spills and keep dirt out of the bottle, and the cap is tethered to the spout so you won’t lose it.
The SureStart ignitor is a high quality rechargeable glow ignitor with an included 1800mAh NiMH cell, and wall charger. This ignitor has a 2.25″ reach, and the included wall charger will charge the battery in approximately 6 hours. For the best performance during a race day it is recommended that the ignitor be left on the charger when not in use.
The tools included in this kit are where the real value comes into play! The large 5-way wrench features 8, 9, 10 and 12mm nut drivers, as well as a 17mm wrench in the center, while the small 4-way wrench has 4, 5, 5.5 and 7mm nut drivers. That’s the equivalent of 9 wrenches, in two tools! There is also a ?3 flat head screwdriver with a 3″ reach that is perfect for tuning engines, and a ?3 Phillips screwdriver that can be used to maintain servos or anything else that requires a small Phillips head screwdriver.

- (1) 500cc Fast Fill fuel bottle

Anonymous Verified Owner Wednesday, Oct 26 2011 (about 13 years ago) ProTek RC Nitro Starter Set Do not recommend this product, the glow ignitor was defective right out of the box, tested with the glow plug that came in my car as well as with brand new OS glow plugs, the ignitor would only make the glow plugs glow for about 1 second and then nothing, this after charging for 6 hours as the instructions on the site says to charge, there was no documentation in the packaging. 5 of 6 customers found this review helpful. Richard Hess Wednesday, Aug 2 2017 (about 8 years ago) ProTek RC Nitro Starter Set Perfect for starting out in nitro, a must have in my opinion 1 customer found this review helpful. james k Verified Owner Wednesday, May 10 2017 (about 8 years ago) ProTek RC Nitro Starter Set Igniter starts my car 3 times before it’s dead. I have charged it 6-24 hours. This kit is worthless. Just buy the stuff separately from a company that makes a good product. Only thing of value in the box is the bottle. 1 customer found this review helpful. Brian Rock Verified Owner Sunday, Apr 6 2014 (about 11 years ago) ProTek RC Nitro Starter Set Good kit to get a guy started. The igniter works just fine, and will go all day at the track. The bottle and multi tool really pretty good, but the screwdrivers are a little on the small side. Overall a good bang for the buck if your getting started. 1 customer found this review helpful. John Tanner Verified Owner Monday, Aug 25 2025 (5 weeks ago) ProTek RC Nitro Starter Set very nice starter kit for nitro rc well made kit thank you protek rc. Andries Buskens Thursday, Jun 8 2023 (about 2 years ago) ProTek RC Nitro Starter Set As advertised for a fair price point!! Some of these reviewers expected too much for the price!! Good all around starter set up!! From here I suggest looking into horizon hobbys lipo glow igniter!!! The black one specifically which is the price of this whole set up!! Another hint due to my preference is the Hpi fuel filler bottle!! Aaron Kauffman Verified Owner Tuesday, Oct 12 2021 (about 3 years ago) ProTek RC Nitro Starter Set Glow starter has worked perfectly and lasted a whole day at the track. The red light on the glow starter charger never shuts off though. Even after 6+ hours of charging. But everything works good for the price, so 5 stars Mac Devoe Verified Owner Wednesday, May 6 2020 (about 5 years ago) ProTek RC Nitro Starter Set Gave it three stars because the bottle is a little annoying because ut doesnt have a screw cap and the glow igniter come apart pretty easy but other than that if you lacking the tool to start you car up this is nice kit go buy the protek sure start bump box to great products View all reviews
