Default Total amount of time to break in Nitro engine



Hey,

How much total time does it take to property break in a nitro engine? I have the K4.6 engine that comes with the Savage X SS and want to break it in properly. Based on the instructions it's going to take about 4-5 tanks of fuel. I'm busy with work all week (9-5er) and might just wait till saturday as Idon't want to be rushed since I'm a rookie.

Any experience?

Also, is it best to do the entire procedure all at once? Or is it okay to break it up and do it over teh course of a couple days.I am assuming all at once in order to fully regulate the tempuratues.</p>
