Should I go with Break in Fuel

[f1_]

I've had a TG10 in storage for close to 10 years now. When I first bought it, i ran it two or three times and never really broke it in.

I've kept it in good condition, putting in some after run oil to keep the engine lubricated while in storage.

I'm about to run it again to test it before selling it off. I wonder if I'm better of with an break in fuel which has 18% oil rather than the 11% in the normal oil. I think both are 25% nitro.

We have limited options available so right now I have those two to work of.

Would I be better off with the break in fuel or should I just do the regular fuel instead?

Break it in on what you intend to run in it otherwise you start another tuning from scratch. I'd recommend the heat cycle break in method in the following link.

Keep us posted on how it's going. Take your time and be rewarded with a reliable engine.

Thanks for that. I only need to make sure it runs before selling it off. I don't think I'll end up keeping it but I'd like to know I did everything I could to ensure a long and reliable running for the next owner.

Personally, I'd break it in for them, using the fuel that you're going to send them with it.
