i just had my Vindicator 225 rebuilt with new top and bottom crankshaft bearings, also a new crankshaft (used), new VRO pump and rings. I also did fatten up the #2 jet as advised here.
Problem is ... OR IS IT ???
Should I have run it at a conservative RPM fo the first X hrs ?
What I did, I Ran at 4500-5500 for the first 2 hrs taking 4# 5min breaks in between.
I then ran 4500 - 5000 for 1 1/2 hrs.
ALL with an extra 80:1 mixture in the tank with the new VRO also.
Did not break anything.
From here is there any advise on extra oil for remainder of break in, or just extra 50:1 -70:1 for the next 5 hrs will be fine ?
**** SHOULD I BE LIMITING my RPM's for this period ? **** Would a bad break-in procedure robb me of power forever if things don't seat right ?
I know this may be a tad late, maybe it doesn't matter. Please advise.
Thanks
