See no one ever told me anything about breaking in these gas engines! This is allll news to me, My Baja 5B manual didnt mention anything about breaking it in. Also, you're saying break it in hard, but others say dont run above half throttle for 3 tanks.....

Run it hard!! the object is to seat the ring and fast as possible to avoid blow by.. Trust me, by your 3rd tank your going to notice a increase in rpms.. your truck will start to get faster snad faster..

Adjust your needles in 1/12 turns, untill she runs just right. and dont be afraid to run that sucker hard!! but do use either 24:1 or 32:1 oils to gas ratio. when you start it get it good and warm up for 2-3 minutes of idling and run it up to half throttle bring it in and check the plug. You want it to be a nice brown color, anything dark brown or even black is too rich. be carefull not to foul the plug with over rich settings. if it a light brown it too lean. when you get her good run it. 3rd tank i bet it'll start screaming. maybe earlier

Mm now it makes sense.

I guess that means my chainsaw isnt running at optimum potential :P

yard equipment isn't as important as they are really run flat out for very long at a time, and are of a much more robust design then high performance engines because max power isn't a top concern, but reliablity is so they will last longer
