Default Not too rich

Don't break-in an ABC type engine really rich. When run too rich the engine will actually run too cool which in turn will not allow the piston and sleeve to expand properly. When this happens the fit between the piston and sleeve will wear out prematurely. This will greatly shorten the life and power of the engine.
