Default RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

I broke in the Saito 1.00 twin in the last hour, I did my usual 10 minutes at various rpm. During the 5,000 rpm run the engine picked up 450 rpm
10 minutes @=====4,000
10 minutes @=====5,000
10 minutes @=====6,000
9.5 minutes @==== 7,000, 16oz tank went empty, I shut it down rather than let it go lean and quit.
5 more minutes @ 7,500, then set HS needles for 9,450 peak, then set airbleds for sub 2,000 rpm idle.
Fuel===WildCat 15% Premium Extra
Plugs===Pre H9 Super plug
Prop===Bolly 13.5x8, a surprise as I exected 8,200 or 8,300 at most, a pleasant surprise.
