4.

Be certain the mufflers are 

installed properly by oiling the 
threads and inserting the muffler 
gasket(79) if applicable, and that the 
lines are properly connected.

5.

Fill the fuel tank.

6.

Prime the engine:

• check to make sure the glow 

plugs are not connected to the 
heat source (glow plug 
clip/locking socket)

• open throttle fully
• close choke valve(92), if 

applicable

• rotate propeller in a counter-

clockwise direction 2-3 times 
or until fuel begins to drain 
from the carburetor

• open choke valve(92), if 

applecable

NOTE: 

Instructions for the FA-90Ts 

Flat Twin AAC 4 Stroke Engines. For 
priming, inject approximate quantity of 
fuel (about 1-2 cc) into the carburetor 
with a syringe etc., as illustrated.

NOTE:

 This process is not 

applicable for owners of the Saito 
FA-182TD. Ibstead, remove the 
aluminum stopper from the silicone 
tubing leading to the right 
cylinder/carburetor spray bar. Inject 
approximately 5cc of fuel into the 
silicone tubing. Replace the 
aluminum stopper. Please refer to 

Figure 4.

7.

Start the engine:

• close the throttle to 1/4-1/3 open 

position

• rotate propeller clockwise until it’s 

against the compression stroke

• connect the heating source to the 

glow plugs

Figure4

FA-182TD

NOTE: 

It is not necessary to ignite 

all four glow plugs in the dual 
plugged versions (two glow plugs per 
cylinder) of the Saito engines. It’s 
only necessary to apply heat to the 
two rear plugs. The front glow plugs 
will ignite once the engine reaches 
operating temperature.

NOTE: 

A very common error is to 

remove the glow plug ignitor too 
early. It is suggested that the ignitor is 
left attached until after the engine has 
been run up and the high speed needle 
valve(s) has been properly adjusted.
