On a side note ,you can't always expect a product to work perfect when it comes
to nitro engines ,in some cases ,I've heard that the engines carbs were set too rich
for even a break-in setting!
It is actually too late for me to touch on this subject with my opinion ,but will
touch basis on this tomorrow!..

You WANT the engine to be very rich during the first 6-8 tanks.

You want plentyyyy of oil for the break in process


AFTER those 6-8 tanks.. THEN you can start leaning it out.

Leaning it out too soon will result in damage

Patience is a virtue ?

You go from one extreme to the other By now you should have bought a new engine after intentionally leaning leaning out your engine a damaging it. Now you go just the opposite. A rich setting on low will lag off the line and you will hear it. It will bogy down then speed up. On the high is where you need it to be rich. When the engine accelerates to max speed just before Is best setting. But you continued to lean out the engine screaming down the road. There is no magic number or clock position. If you want to protect you engine and make it last longer you should have listen to you critics and richen the high speed needle.

Basically you want to run it as rich as it will run during the break in process. It is true that some manufacturers set them ultra rich from the factory to the point where they barely run(looking right at you, Dynamite). So sometimes, maybe after a few tanks you'll need to slightly lean things in order to even get it running enough to apply more throttle or get up to speed, but you don't want to go to far. Keep a thermometer handy, and keep the blue smoke coming out liberally until at least 6 tanks or so, then start leaning for performance. Typically though I try to keep them on the rich side, to prolong the engine life.

WOW????? You go from one extreme to the other By now you should have bought a new engine after intentionally leaning leaning out your engine a damaging it. Now you go just the opposite.

Is there anybody that actually can help? There's some other person that keeps saying stuff that don't make sense and only got that response from him. And what he saying has nothing to do with the video that I did last night. Besides what I'm asking in text.



Number one why is it that when I fill the tank with fuel the engine dies down and runs very rich? I am referring to the things that I'm referring to in this video i'm not going to say the name of the person but I wish that you know who you are we'll just knock it off with just speaking nonsense of stuff that's nothing to do with the exact things that I'm saying.

If you are referring to the engines idles down even lower when at idle ,that is called a 2 stage idle ,the
Lsn maybe still too rich ,because it is the Lsn that controls how much fuel that the engine needs while
sitting at a non throttle stage idle!

The fuel tank if you fill it up all the way to where the cap is so like when a person refills the fuel tank it's not so much that I do that dies down it's just that the engine runs very rich to the point it won't run unless the fuel tank gets half empty. And I was wondering by asking that question the fuel tank is there a such thing as overflowing the tank where it affects the pressure? Cuz I'm speaking about the past when I had one out last summer it's been a year since I've actually what out and drove these RC so I'm trying to get these experiences straight

It is common for an engine to change when you take the fuel pressure away ,but filled up ,it should still
have some kind of syphon effect! However ,I am not quite sure what happens if you plug the air off with
the fuel after topping it off ,even though the muffler try's to push pressure into the tank ,but at that point
when the engine is at idle ,you will not have that much pressure to push!
It might be like a hydro lock ,example: like sticking a straw in water an holding one finger at the other
end to trap the water in the straw ,then releasing your finger to allow the water to escape!..

I'm still studying but I'm probably going to have to make a new thread because this one wasn't as transparent and its my felt.I didn't know how to lay down the groundwork properly the first time I did it
