I pulled my FG-11 manual, which shouldn't be much different than the 14, and it shows only the wires of the module. HH site is borked so couldn't pull the manual to compare.

On the 14 for break in, I would suggest adding just a bit more oil to the mix for the first 1/2 gallon, then go the recommended ratio after that. When I first ran at the 20:1 I saw no oil out the breather, which had me concerned, so made it 18:1 and then saw oil residue. I also only ran one tank through it on the bench, then flew it after that. It is one sweet running engine. my FG-11 runs for at least an hour on 12 ounces of fuel. I also added a scavenge system like what is recommended on page 4, which keeps the cowl and engine clean.


Well, looks like I wont be able to maiden my Cub today, its foggy and visibility sucks. I did fire up the Saito 100 in it yesterday, it has so much torque, the plane was moving sideways on throttle up. Took a bit to get started though being it was only 42*.
