    Did your smoke unit ever work? You mentioned that it won't work "anymore", so this sounds like it could be overfilled already. The pumping sound is normal to hear, as the smoke unit is a small piston driven system

      It work finely but it went empty and my friend told me I need to put the smoke liquid in the exhaust but I think I over flooded it

      and my track of the tiger goes sometimes to the side plates and then the tank goes slightly to the left when driving straight forward is there a way to fix it

      thx

          In the Heng Long manual, not the tank manual, there is a page that tells you how to trim the driving to go straight.

              Sounds like your track may be off center. Look to see how the other track rides on it's sprocket, idler and road wheels and see if it's the same. If not work it into position like the other side.

                The track doesn’t get of the drive wheel the drive wheel completely moves with the tracks along to the side plates I tryed to unscrew it push it back screw it back but it constantly gets back of too the sideplates so not the wheel with tooth’s it’s the wheel that moves but I guess it’s when driving and the wheels to tight and u drive backwards the screw unscrews itself by the force of the wheel. I guess then

                  I don't have a Tiger so you'll have to wait for someone with a Tiger that knows the exact details. If I understand correctly it's the "Idler" wheel that is unscrewing in reverse. There may be dirt, sand or other grit on the bearing surface that is binding with the screw shaft causing it to unscrew. Try cleaning all surfaces really good and when installing the screw use a very small amount of "blue" thread locker so it's possible to remove again.
