rc car maintenance
RC car question need help please!?

I have a buggy HPI 5b 23cc (2T). Recently, when I start the engine, it just bursts out lots and lots of gray smoke and the torque and speed have dropped massively. throttle is so full, as now quarter. I use the correct fuel oil to 2T and I have done all the routine maintenance according to the user manual. I never changed the settings on the carburetor or the other.
