Well,I ran the motor Saturday. It ran great for about 10 min. then it stopped,and I couldnt get it started again.. :x

I took the plug out and spun the prop around a few times,the motor tightened up,I would stop and it would loosen up again.
Almost like the tolerance for the piston/cylinder is to tight.. I emailed him,so we'll see what happens. Im sure he'll do good on it. On RCU they say the motor is tight until it has a few gallons through it. But IDK..

The Yak will be ready for next Saturday though.I gots the new graphics on it. It looks nice now..
It looks alot like this..Image

I got an email from him this morning.He says most of them are like that until about 2 hrs. of break in time. The cylinder heats up before the piston,or vissa versa.. Told me to use a heavy duty starter on it. He also says their hard to start when their to rich. That why I think it would only pop cuz there was to much fuel in the cylinder.. He said either try what he says or switch it with the one hes shipping out this week with the 46gt. Or just send it back to him and he'll run it and see if its OK..
Maybe Ill bring it Saturday with the Yak and see if we can get it running..

Cya,
Frank
