Default RE: Engine Running

Just make sure you do the break in on the water ,by the way not too much break in is needed i just ran for 5 mins brought her in ,let her cool right down then back out for ten mins back in and so on untill the tank was almost empty varying throttle all the time and not exeeding 3/4 throttle.Second tank i let her rip for short bursts and had fun,3rd tank i just let her rip for a few laps and that was it engine run in.Some guys dont even do that but i prefer to do a little break in and allways use plenty of synthetic oil 16-1 or 8oz is what i use.On my full mod im using 12-1 [X(].
