Thank you Monty! Yea, since he has been in the pet hospital. I try to visit him every other day for a few hours. I have learned he knows how to open the door and turn off the lights. He's going to be a fantastic dog.

Monty, how extensively do you recommend cleaning an engine after break in or do you? They broke in my Bonitto with 15% nitro and I run 25% should I flush out the engine? It hasn't quite lost its nuts yet as it still sticks every once in a while so I still run it rich, but wanted to know if I should actually take it apart and spray it out, or just run it with the new fuel.

I would just run the fuel.

While some lube pkgs oils dont really mix well they are usually ok to switch from one fuel to the next but you should give the engine a chance to switch out so to speak the different lubes by running it easy for a few tanks

Thanks, i normally run the same fuel for break in, but to get the warranty I needed to buy their fuel for the first gallon, I figured it would run out fine, but wanted to check and make sure
