funkymonki Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) hi folks started breaking in my x1xcr buggy in yesterday wondering if i am doing this right? any help would be appreciated. HSN 3 turns out LSN 3 turns out idle : 1mm Yesterdayheat the engine up to 60 degrees c with a hair dryer then ran tank 1 at idle and temp never went above 70 degrees clet it cool at BDCran tank 2 at 0-1/4 throttle watching the temp it never went above 90 degrees c , had to turn the Lsn is 1/8th of a turn clockwise as it was cutting out when touching the throttle. tested at end of tank by pinching the fuel line and the engine revs went up a little then cut off.let it cool at BDC and put some after run oil in. Todayran tank 3 let the engine heat up then ran at 0-1/4 throttle and the temp went up to 110 degrees c.let it cool at BDC.ran tank 4 ran at 0-1/2 throttle and kept the temp up at 90-110 degrees degrees clet it cool at BDC and put some after run oil in. had to head home because of the rain :-( when i come off the throttle the temp drops down slowly .. am i on the right track?

jimmytheone Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Sounds cock on to me dude. Carry on like you are and your engine should last a long time. As you have already mentioned, give the engine time to warm up a bit before putting any pressure on it (like driving). Not long till you'll be WOT. whoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHUNKERLUV Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Yep your doing fine don't worry about temps too much in the early stage they're usually all over the place...but having said that don't let them get above 120C. You may want to richen the HSN abit whilst you go upto full throttle on the next few tanks. If you can keep the engine about 100 for breakin thats perfect. Keep it abit rich for the next 3-4tanks then tune it !!! Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkymonki Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) excellent cheers guys :-) al start off tank 5 to 1/2 throttle tank 6 to 3/4 tank 7 to 1/4,1/2, 3/4 then tank 8 to full throttle then the joys of tuning :-) the fuel and smoke are still flying out of the exhaust so its running very rich :-) had to reset the hsn , factory was set to 2, 1/2 turns. so i reset it to 3 turns Edited January 6, 2012 by funkymonki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
