Status: offline 		I seem to be missing the manual for my BGX-1. Can someone tell me what the break-in procedure is? Also what is the initial needle setting? With my other OS engines I ran them at full throttle as rich as possible and then gradually starting leaning it out for short periods. Is the BGX the same?

Thanks for any information.

Status: offline 		i bought one from someone who took the baffle out of the muffler, ran 20% nitro, trying to get the thing to rev in the high 8000's , nearly f#@#ed it up .This engine will not rev much above
7500 with the stock muffler and that should be plenty with the right prop . IF you run it to lean you'll get scoring on the piston in the muffler area, also i dont think one gallon is enough to
break it in , it'll take2 or 3. its too expensive to ruin
