im going to use it with %16 fuel and im pretty sure the man who i bought the engine from used with %16 fuel

should i breakin the engine assuming that it is completely new?i use WOT method for breaking in engines

thanks for the reply
Start with 5 tanks WOT on the box. Then with a soft clutch go another 5 tanks on the track. It most likely will not shift being so rich. On these 5 tanks you can lean it a little each time. Make sure to let cool down between tanks. After this rebuild the clutch and reclean the 2speed. Then put it back and start race tuning the motor.

Good luck,
