Hi guy's hows it been?I just bought a new OS 18 cvrx
and was wondering if breaking it in on white lightening 20%
will hurt the engine.Only reason I asked is because of the
very low 8% oil content.I have ran this fuel with no problems
in engines that are broken in.Thanks.Don't want to ruin a
new engine!

I'am pretty expierenced at carb tuning so overleaning
shoudn't be a problem.Thanks again.
 
Sounds kinda low to me. You could buy a quart of traxxas or byron's just for break in, both are good fuels with plenty of oil.
 
i used traxxas to break mine in and it still runs like a beast that motor rules
 
When you say that motor.Are you talking about
the os 18 cvrx.I haven't ran it yet but have heard
some good things about it.
 
I have the OS 18 CV-R(X) in my Tmaxx and its a beast of power. Very, very strong engine and VERY easy to tune. I broke mine in on 20% traxxas and have never had a problem and throws the front of my maxx in the air all the time. I would suggest using a different nitro that uses a little more oil in it. the manual says I think, no less then 16% oil content. so thats half of what it recommends. Just my $0.02
