Everything I have read and talked to the other gasser flyers is break in using Lawn Boy ashless or Stihl oil at 32:1 then after a couple of gallons switch over to a good synthetic oil like Red Line or Royal Purple at 40 to 1 and leave it there....Some guys will fly as high as 100 to 1 but You can't hurt your engine with too much oil

If its running good dont dork with it. Running rich does nothing to contribute to break in, to properly seat the rings the engine has to reach operating temp, otherwise it will just take longer
