Minari Engine Break-InProper break-in will provide you with a better running engine, it will also provide for considerably longer engine life. During the break-in, gently change RPM from idle to 3/4-throttle and back. The procedure is as follows: 1. Run the engine, varying the RPM, for 2 minutes. At this point, you can fly. However, avoid long periods of full power and vary the throttle setting often. For heavier pilots that require more power to fly, it is recommended that 1 hour of non-flying break-in be completed before flying. Break-in is complete after 10 hours of operation of the the engine at 2.5% or 40:1 fuel to synthetic 2-stroke engine oil ratio. Also refer to the Minari Engine Manual for more information. More information can be found on the Southwest Airsports website. |
