what is the normal break in procedure. i know not to beat on it for a while, should i run a little more oil than normal? just got the new flywheel and stator tonight , and the results are : i got spark , i can not wait till tommorrow to fire the beast up!another tecate back from the dead!!!!!!!!!
i used to have a stock 85 t3 and now have a 84 t3 with 8inch extended swing arm is the handling going to be better or worse?
i plan on running golden spectro , has anyone had any disagreements with the spectro? if so what happened?
what is a good % mix of oil to gas for a rebuilt?


thanks,
dan

Run 32:1 for breakin. There are many different ways to break a 2-stroke engine in, I can't give an opinion because I have never done it. After you break it in you can run 50:1.

i've heard many times from different ppl that have owned a tecate that the factory reccomends 32:1 for 1 tank after one tank you can gradually increase the RPM's over the next tank and your good to go, so 1 tank break in keep it low-mid to mid RPM's 32:1 then run whatever mix you want and gradually increase the RPM's to full throttle over about half of the next tank ;)
