Default Do you really need a tach for breaking in a 4-stroke

Baz,

No, I think we have two different types of Castor Oil here. May be I am thinking of Cod Liver Oil? The Castor Oil used in Glow Fuel is Very Poisonous! Something you don't want to ingest.
The fuel you have listed should be fine unless the instructions state other wise? The 14x6 prop. should do fine. If you have some 10% Nitro 20% Oil (2Cycle), that would be better. Just pre- lube the engine (as stated earlier) and run it good and rich. Take your time with the break-in and you will be well rewarded after.

I have never used Power Master Fuel. It is not available in Canada as far as I know? I Know some of My American Fly Buddies don't and won't use it. They refer to it as "Rust Master".
It is a blended fuel and you might want to post a thread in the engine section regarding using it for break-in. You will get all kinds of answers I'm sure, so you will have to define fact from fiction there.

Happy Fly'n....
