Just got the 26gt and need to know what oil to use for break in did a search on here and found the Mobil 1 mx2t but can't find it in any stores around here.

new label is Motorcycle Oil
Racing Two T
why they did this is a mystery
breakin is simply a matter of not overheating the engine
put an 18x6 prop on it and go fly -
Learn to adjust the needles the so called factory settins is a myth and can cause you to ruin the engine if you don't learn to adjust for proper operation.
after you have burned up a gallon or so -if you like - change oil content to 40 to 1 but I have just left mine at 32 -1 it works fine runs very hard and shows no sign of looseness or overheating.

Got the evolution running yesterday and it runs great had a little trouble getting it primed had to use the starter on at first but after that it would start on the on the first flip. Needless to say I am happy with it and looking forward to getting it flying.

Yes I did and the engine ran great but on the fifth flight of my monocoupe something went wrong and into the ground she went. don't really know what happened I was coming in to land and about 25 feet from the end of the runway and it pulled hard left and went in I don't think I was to slow because I was still at about 1/2 throttle. Anyway now I have to find something new to put the evolution 26gt in got any ides

Glad to hear this the Motul is all I can find. The guy at the motorcycle shop said it is the cleanest burning 2t oil he has ever used.
