Losi 8ight-t running GOOD NOW!!! How to break in proper?
Thanks for all the help guys!! Its been a rough two days trying to get my first Nitro truck running! First I get a truck that has a broken front break cam. Had to fix that. Went to a hobby shop looking for the part. Then was just totally overwhelmed in how to install the part. A total stranger came to where I was. And he offered to fix it on the spot at the store!!! So this guy Tom brought in his tools from his car and the shop owner let him fix it for me! It took him like 15 minutes. I know it would have taken me two hours! I bought him a 15 dollar fly wheel for his truck that he wanted. It was the least I could do. So Tom, from the Waterford, Michigan area thanks a lot! Anyways, whats the best way to break in the engine? I am still a little confused on setting the engine regarding rich, and lean. So any help would be great. Thanks.

[link]http://www.johnnycoolguy.com/JCGR/main/tech_break-in.html[/link]Look at the heat cycle method. Run it only slighly rich.
This is a good method.
