<span style="font-family: Verdana"> Hi Guys.

Slight problem !

ive had my xtm 247 pro engine for about 2 weeks now and today the car just cut out at full throttle. i tried to pull it to start again and it wouldnt budge ATALL.

after taking the cooling head off and pulling the sleeve out it appears my conrod is mashed to hell.</span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana">
ive ran it in all by the book on 1/2 gallon of 16% and have recently been using 20%.

any ideas and advice?

also i forgot to send off the warranty slip which i was meant to do within 10 days

HELP!</span>

Probably lack of lubrication. Running it lean and/or with synthetic oil.
