Breakin In A G260.

[goracemg30]

Hey guy, i just got a G260 engine for my goped sport. I would like to know how to break it in. I have asked alot of people and they all say different thing. I dont know what to do. How much oil it takes. What is the proccess of breakin it in.
Does a K&N filter fit the G260?

yes a k&n will fit you just need the v-stack.I find this the best way to break in a go-ped engine. I use caster 927 at 25:1 with a full tank. You see caster 927 is petroleum based oil and will allow for more engine wear. This is why you don?t use synthetic for break in.ok now you start and run the engine until it gets to operating temp. (About 2 min.) Go around the block or something. Then let it cool down (about 20 min.) You need to do this 3 times. After that run the engine up to the power band (about 5,800 rpm) DO NOT STAY IN THE POWER BAND. Let off at about 8,500 rpm. Do this over and over until you have run the whole tank of gas. This may take a couple of days but it?s worth it. After that I run amsoil; its fully synthetic at 50:1 I know that seems thin but this oil is incredible it lubricates at 50:1 better than a petroleum oil at 25:1 so what that means is you have more fuel to burn and you guessed it more power and less friction. I know amsoil is more money but when you really look at it its not because it costs about $10.00 a qrt but that qrt. Will make 16 gallons of gas!

Basically all you need to do is idle it around for two tanks. I've seen guys at Worlds go full throttle on their brand new race engine. Not the smartest thing to do, but it still runs.
