Yea Brian, def start you own thread and try not to "HIJACK" someone elses (which you have just done) [X(]
As for you problem, it sounds like you have scewed the idle screw itself all the way in...which will make you idle higher as you have to unscrew the idle screw so the carb closes until it stops at about 1mm open (looking from the top into the carb opening, without air filter on).
So in the beginning you want to have your LSN flush, and dont touch it until your about 10 tanks and finished the breakin, and then it will need only a slight lean (probably) if anything.
Your new to Nitro so I would just do the brakin like the book say, dont get too hung up on keeping the temp up to 200...later on with other engines you can maybe try the Heat Cycle method, but the manual method will do fine, I have run in my first two engines like this and they have lasted well, infact my K4.6 is still going strong (touch wood [X(])

I would...idle the first tank, with the wheels up on blocks (cause they will spin as the idle may have to be higher to keep it running, you can easily adjust this on your trim tab instead of mucking with the idle yet), then after that do a couple of tanks on the ground, concrete is best because it is smooth, you truck should be running really rich and should run like a pig, bog down etc and dont worry about full throttle, about half max.
After each subsequent tank lean it out slightly on the HSN (clockwise) about 1 hour each time (mentally divide your HSN into 12 hours like a clock! example: a 1/4 turn would be 3 hrs) after the next couple of tanks dont be afraid to give the truck full noise, but keep it to short bursts, after 10 tanks you should be nearly there, but COMPLETE breakin will take longer than this so continue to take it a little bit easy and you will continue to get more power out of the engine.
