By hot, they mean TOO hot, like the 330 you hit.
Running it cool only strains it. You HAVE to hit temps in the 200s to break it in.

I don't know who you spoke to there, but that info is just TOTALLY wrong.
I don't have over 20,000 posts here because I'm a newbie. You're getting advise from experienced members who have broken in and tuned hundreds of engines through the years.
If I have to keep proving to you that we know what we're talking about, and you keep going to other sources and getting bogus info, then I don't want to follow this thread any more. I've spent a LOT of time trying to get you broken in the right way, and the jackass at Losi is not worth the minimum wage they pay him to pack and label boxes. Do it his way and ruin the engine.
Okay? No wonder you keep doing everything wrong. You're just not listening to us. We, at RCNT take a great deal of pride in giving out only the proper information. If ANY member gives out incorrect or misleading info, we correct it in that thread.

they said the richer the fuel and the cooler the engine the better, so a little confused
