RE: break in issues
hey john yep sounds about right...you need to break in the engine with very rich tuning, to keep plenty of lube(in the fuel) in the engine during breakin. I did not change the settings when I did the breakin on both of my nx76's. I just yanked and yanked. I it is hard starting and cold were you aer trying to start you could use a hair dryer to warm the block, will help starting. If the temp is not so cold and it wont start very easy, you could loosen the glow plug just a crack to release some of the compression, but as soon as it starts tighten the plug back up.
Hope this helps, Have fun.
