Default break in process for Novarossi Engine???

hello, i am pretty new to nitro rc. I just finished building up my MTX3 and about to do break in. I got NOVAROSSI RS12T5 (rear exhaust turbo). i heard that the break in process is much harder and longer for Novarossi engine. So i am kind of worried about it. so could someone please give me some advises or tips on it? and also what kind of glow plug would be best for my engine? thanks in advance.

Default ABC break-in

Jayjay,

Try reading my input in this thread:

Use your usual glow plug and add castor oil to your fuel, to reach 22-24% total oil.

Sincerely,,

It's a little hard to break in an R/C car (truck) engine like you would an airplane engine. Unless you have some type of test stand and props small enough to let the engine turn well over 20,000 rpm. Also, R/C car engines don't usually require so much oil. Best bet is to follow the instructions. I have never owned a Novarossi but I believe it wouldn't be much different than any other ABC car engine.

Default Novarossi

As far as I know, Novarossi offers a break-in accessory kit, that enables a car engines to spin a prop.
I don't know what it includes.

See their web site: http://www.novarossi.com
