Hi everyone, just letting everyone know.
My first Arrow is into it's 5th gallon and still running great.
Maybe it's gotta do with it's high mechanical pinch perhaps.
Bearings too are working well.
Let's see how many gallons it can go before I need to change it's P/S/R
Thumbs up

Just broke in my new Arrow GTR .21 about a week ago and finally got to take it out to Revelation Raceway in Southern California and once again this motor did not let me down. It idled great for me and came off the track at 210 degrees. Can't wait for JBRL to show everyone how these Arrows run

Hi all,
Ive started to break in my arrow today n ive got to say that the 1st few tanks was really a pain even with the help of a heat gun. The HSN default setting imo is way too rich. But finally managed to run it nicely n even with its rich setting n with the dyn 053 pipe.. Its beginning to rock... Cant wait to get the engine fully run in as ive only reached the half gallon mark. Can anyone help me with the baseline settings of the engine.
Many thanks..

This engine like rpm pipe.

To keep minimum wear of the engine,i use pre-heater.
