I prefer to break in on 20% as it is a bit less stressful. With the correct tuning I have not noticed any difference in longevity between 20% to 30%.





im been running 20 % and, have a rich tune and get about 9 min with a carb insert of course. i do race with 20 % by the way since i replaced my clutch shoes i think, i should have plently of torque to clear a big jump.

im using ebmods 20%, RACE formula it doesnt have a whole lot of oil its about 10 %.
