The motor pinch should be gone when the motor is broke in. If you are talking compression then have you ran it too hot? I have 2 orion one with little over 3 gals on it and still have great compression and one with 1 1/2 gals on it and cant turn it over by hand. if it runs good i would run it until it tells you in needs pinched( flameouts, wont idle, Etc...)
Thanks |
What i do is if the motor cant hold itself up for 10secs on its side then i get it pinched or replace. And all motors are different in compression. I know novarossi and go racing engines used to take over 1 1/2 to fully break in. My micheal truhe edition has about 1 1/2 gals on it and compression is still hard and cant roll the motor over by hand. And my abi 3 port has 3 gals on it and still has pretty tight compression. Thats my 2 cents

Hi Scottym or pitpop
you helped me some posts back so i loved my CRF 5PORT ABI with 2057n pipe and extension, so the questios is i only run 1 galon or little more, the engine still perfect but im afraid the engine has not any pinch, i can move the flywheel so easy, its like a old engine sooo free... i is a characterist for this motor or mine wear out faster?(important to say the engine still running perfect) i dint nothing wrong no dirt inside all time new filters with oil, not run too lean.... , i take care the engine before and after breaking like a baby, i m just asking if its a characterisc for this motor be sooooooooo free after breaking thanks a lot

Like Stallen said if it stills runs good, and runs strong, do not worry about it. Wait until it won't run before piniching it..

Any Team Orion Alpha engine should hold the pinch for a couple gallons if it's broken in properly. They run better once they lose the pinch and really run ridiculous in the 3 to 6 gallon range when they get loose. Ridiculous top end power and good idle. Sometimes we can't wait for the pinch to go away so we have more top end. Even after the pinch is gone the engine should run a LONG time...

I love my orion's. I switched from werks and love it. Seem to have a little edge over werks, but that might be me. Anyone running 6.5 restrictors? How do u like running them?

Does the Cody King edition come with all the carb inserts? The pictures on Amain show them, but noone else does. So whats the deal? I figured I'd ask here since I'm sure there are some owners here:sneaky:
|
Yes. Have not strayed away from the 7.0mm insert that comes with it stock though.

Anyone know where I can pick up a Discovery Combo? All the online stores are out of stock, and so is Greg B.. I'ld prefer one with the 2013 or 2058, but would consider 2057..
