wow my RB engine came w/ a 30 day warrenty. I knew there was sumtin dumb bout that. The engine was broken in by an experinced guy from where i bought it. I don't know his methods but how could u find out how they broke it in without waiting for sumtin bad to happen? Also if it was broken in badly can i increase th life somehow? I did treat it pretty harsh for the first tank after 2 months of break in (winter...snow). I used old fuel and let it idle for 3/4 the tank once. It ran rich w/ fuel spitting out but i didn't form a big puddle. I has been only run periodically in th past months like 1/2 to 3/4 a tank every 3 to 5 weeks. I either idled it rich or ran it with the glow ignitor in cause in needed a new glow plug. I was busy so no time to run it or buy stuff. Any tips on care since the old methods of what i am used to have been lies? I hope it is not to late to save the engine. It was using trinity horsepower 20% nitro blend for the couple of tanks ( no more than 4 tanks) after break in. right now its been about a couple weeks and it is sitting on my table next to my dismantled car. if this is confusing sry typing wit one hand cause i sprained my other. took 30 min to type[:'(] thanks in advance
The fact that you let it sit and idle is not the best for your engine since it does not allow it to heat up to design fit for the piston and sleeve.
The best thing you can do is tune it to the fully broken in level (max performance and richened some) and go enjoy it. You can not reverse wear to the piston and sleeve, but you can minimize any further wear.
Your fuel choice should be fine. For future fuel purchases, if you want to, you could try S&W car fuel or Megatech's new fuel, both excellent products available in your area, you might even find Fantom. In additon to mine, these brands I mention will give you the performance you want with some pretty unbelievable protection that is real easy on engines.
