Good morning everyone!,
In another thread I told how the rotostart in my Savage X pucked right fom the git-go, so I took it to my LHS, and he fixed it and filled the tank with Traxxas top fuel, and had me take the truck outside and run it. It was the first tank of fuel in the truck, I told him that the manual says to idle the truck for the first tank of fuel, but he told me that it would be ok to drive it at an EXTREEMLY slow crawl for the first tank, which I did(I just barly moved the truck)! The second tank of fuel I did the circle thing at not more than 1/2 throttle, and the third tank I drove the truck all over my 1 acre at not more than 1/2 throttle.
So thats where I'm at now, so should I use one more tank of fuel for the break-in or do you guys think she's ready for a first real run? He also told me that after break-in I should'nt lean-out the main jet more than a 1/4 turn! Also do you all think I should put in a new glowplug, and if so what are your recommendation, I live 20 miles south of Chicago, and now the temp is between 75, and 85, and I use Traxxas top fuel 20% nitro fuel. Any advice is as always, greatly appriciated.
