Tank 1
1.
Drive the model with the
body off.
2.
Driving procedure:
Gently pull the throttle trigger to about 1/4 throttle over a 2-second
count. Then gently apply the brake to stop
. Count the two seconds out while accelerating:
one thousand one, one thousand two, and then stop. Operate the throttle trigger as
smoothly as you can.
Repeat this starting and stopping procedure until the first tank
of fuel is nearly empty.
3.
Look for thick blue smoke exiting the exhaust outlet. If there is no smoke, richen the
high-speed needle 1/4 turn, by turning the needle counterclockwise.

When the fuel tank is nearly empty, shut off the engine by pinching the fuel line connected
to the carburetor (use the installed clamp).
5.
Let the engine cool for 15 minutes.
Note: If at any point the engine cuts out or stalls during gentle acceleration, richen the high-speed
needle 1/4 turn by turning the needle counterclockwise.

As you gain experience in
the hobby, you may
discover that many people
have differing opinions on
what is the proper
procedure to break-in a
model engine.
Only use the
Traxxas break-in procedure.
Other break-in procedures
could result in a weak,
damaged, or otherwise poor
performing engine.
The
procedure outlined here
was extensively tested and
proven to yield better
performing engines than
other “common” break-in
methods. Even if you have
years of experience using
model engines, please do
not ignore this caution!
