Hi guys, i just get my STS D30M today. I choose it since i read around here its 1 of the best for your buck mill. I'm fully aware and read a lot from Defiantz, Jeremy and others thread bout this mill.
Anyway, here is my problems. I read the break in manual procedure and i find it different from what ppl usually do. I dunno if this is the correct one for this engine. Can someone help me on this? They say open full throttle during break in.. I'm noob in break in..
I quote it form here http://www.stsrc.com.tw/readme-20.aspx please check no 3..
1.Install a new glow-plug. Hotter rated plugs will be better for the rich settings used during break-in. Turbo head button needs conical type glow-plug. Choice hot glow-plug for break-in then you won't have problem.Please increase 0.1mm of head shim.
2. Use high castor oil(12% or above) and low nitro rated glow fuel, 5%~15% nitro is best. Make sure the fuel is fresh and high quality special blending for R/C model car.
==>3.Start by counter-clockwise turning the high speed needle 1 full turn. Open the carburetor to full throttle and hold it there. Turn counter-clockwise the high speed needle until the engine flames out. From here, turn clockwise the high speed needle ¼ turn and restart the engine again running it at full throttle. Run the engine full throttle for 1 tank and shut the engine down. Allow the engine to cool for 15-30 minutes. Once the engine has cooled down, run through the same process again for the second tank. On the second tank close the high speed needle by ¼ of a clockwise turn. Instead of holding the engine at full throttle, start using the throttle by doing 2-3 times bursts of full throttle. Once you have done this for every 1/4 tank, close the high speed needle another ¼ of a turn and continue throttling the engine. Continue closing the high speed needle ¼ turn per every 1/4 tank of fuel. Do this until you have run a grand total of 2 tanks through your engine and then shut the engine down. Allow the engine to cool for 15-30 minutes and then you are ready to hit the race track. Drive two tanks rich around the track slowly closing the high speed needle sneaking up on that perfect mixture.
