The person that owned it before me ran 10% redline and 90% methanol, he had a total of an hour running with that mix. I have the Electrodynamics EDR 103 glow driver once the engine was primed it started on the second flip by hand. Here is a picture of the engine and what its going in. The plane is a Yellow Aircraft AT-6 Texan should be a good combination. I have only gotten through about 17 pages of this thread, I think I have the basic down on the maintenance, oiling after finished running for the day after it cools then checking it the next day. I try to run it every time I go to the field to finish the break-in. Must finish the AT-6! Does anyone know if the EDR glow driver uses the same method of igniting the glow plugs as the Sonic Tronics glow driver by pulsing voltage to the glow plugs.
