    After giving my savage a complete overhaul (list of parts is way to big to mention) i wanted improvements too, 1 of which was i wanted to sort out the jelly tyres, for something that will give much better handling, lighter too so less strain on running gear, didnt need to spend much on these...

    Break In, k5.9 engine temp?

    if your struggling to get your engine to 200 + for the break in then i suggest you cover the head in tinfoil, that will help :)

    Deal or no deal..

    id make sure the running gear is all good, gearbox, spurgear and slipper pad,diffs, cups and dogbones, might look clean but that means nothing if the running gear is mashed up

    sorry youve lost me, we have gone from engine screaming yet only moving about 10mph which is a sign that something could be slipping, then you say you cant go past half throttle and it cuts out, now you can rev it while holding it to full throttle and back to idle and the temp is 300f thats why...

    very true, so best to take engine out that way you can get to the spur gear to undo the middle nut, take off and check slipper pad on back, then you can take clutch bell off engine to check bearings and clutch shoes

    i don't think its your gearbox, its your slipper clutch / spur gear, most likely needs new pad and / or tightening down the 2 grub screws you fiddled with, grub screw on top is a screw shaft that needs to be tightened with loctite then it has a small locking grub screw on top of that you don't...
