Default NOt hot enough

I have a Ofna LX Comp. and when I start it I have to wait a long time for it to warm up, about 45 sec. and I still don't like to give it full throttle,till about 30 sec of 1/3 throttle. So I was wondering if this usally of what, and if it is not, what should I do.

Thank.

I would give it a couple of minutes to let it warm up, it is unnessecary to only give it 1/3 throttle unless maybe you're breaking it in, If you are breaking it in then it will be rich out of the box. But to warm it up let it go at full throttle a little not to much but dont be conservative about it.

letting your engine warm up before you wail on it is always a good idea. What you're doing is probably a little above and beyond, but by doing so, you're definatly not hurting it by taking so long to warm it up real easy. It may actually make the engine last a bit longer, so I'd say that yes, you're doin' it right.
