Default RE: Can't Get new Enging to Turn Over

i fail to see how running the engine rich will hurt it, there is no way to over compress one a engines when it's shimmed right for the fuel your using, no matter how rich you run it the engine will flood before it get to that point, and then the only thing thats in danger is your glow plug not the engine, you must run the engine rich during break in because there is a lot of friction during break in from the tight fit of the piston and sleeve that creates a lot of heat, so you need the extra fuel to both lubricate the engines and to keep it cool.
