Default New CEN owner with a few Q's

Hello all,

I have a question regarding the break in of my CEN Genesis LE. In the review (http://www.rcuniverse.com/magazine/a...article_id=578 ) the author states "Since I have originally reviewed the Genesis, Cen has reworked their guidelines for break-in. This was a welcome sight, due to the large chunk of time it took to idle through the five tanks. Cen now states that you should idle through three tanks instead." After reviewing my directions it states that I should ilde 7 tanks... What's the deal? Was there a change in engine manufacturing that would allow for less tanks or could I cut down to 3 tanks and not have a problem?

I am a complete noobie so I am uncomfortable doing a heat cycle method.

Thanks in advance,

Joe

Joe:

We recommend 7 tanks but you can start operating your vehcile (SLOWLY) after the 3rd tank. After the 5th tank, you can start going wild.

We do recommend heat-cycle method because this method provide me best results.

Thanks, that sounds good. Now the only hitch is actually getting it started. LOL. If you could only see the nasty blisters on my hands...
