Got the picco.26 in the tmaxx finally. I have 10 to 15 tanks ran threw it. how many more tanks should i run in it before i can open it up and see what this motor has.
 
I would take it easy until most of the pinch is gone, picco uses a billet piston so break-in is much longer then the cheaper cast pistons used in most Taiwanese engines. A gallon should do the trick.
 
Keep your wot passes to about a 1 or 2 second maximum. The most important thing is to have it tuned properly, or a little rich. Check your 'pinch' when the engine is warm (200-250°). If it feels like it has loosened up at those temps then you should be good. I still wouldn't try to get the most out of it until you've hit that 1 gallon mark.
