Proper lubing of cylinder before cranking

[Peteolheadz100]

I see online that people use three-in-one oil inside the cylinder for breakin 1st start before you crank the engine to lube up the piston rings is this something that is recommended or is this something that is needed to do for all new gas engines specifically I'm speaking about a 30cc engine , any one should apply

its not going to hurt it remove the plug ,install the oil and give it a couple of pulls.Put the plug back run 25:1 I use royal purple HP 2C 2 stroke oil and that run 28:1 good to go

Manual says 20:1 for breakin then 25 after, isnt that going to foul up the plug?

yes it will,25:1 break in is 5.12 ounces per gallon,after break I use 28:1 which is 4.57 ounces per gallon. Than put a new plug in your engine. Like I said if you go 30:1 she will run really fast but you will lose longevity of the engine. There s other things you can do for horse power , get a lightened fly wheel, and aluminum intake and a better carb. Gizmo.com has modified carbs at a reasonable price to really wake the engine up at 28:1 good luck

Cool thanks as im new to the gas worls always ran electric, one question about the carbs i just ran 2 tanks breaking in my engine, is it ok to leave fuel in the lines and carb when stored? I will continue breaking it in on the weekend? Just noticed the carb is full of fuel but the tank is empty
