my beast lives
ok i bought a savage from my friend and never herd it run at all.
i took a chance, it had a bad OWB and he gave me a new one with it.
i had taken it all the way apart last night, cracked A-arm missing screws.
i got all that fixed today, and popped in a new glow plug and she fired up fast.
i was shocked cus she just sat there purring, and ran smooth for the whole tank.
i didn't even tune on her yet.
so do you guys think i should take it easy and try something like another break in or can i run the piss out of her now.

RE: my beast lives
no the motor wasn't new he gave me a new OWB with the truck.
he said he hed fun with the truck, and look how trashed the body is, and i cleaned it last night,
and there is still mud on it.
this thing sat for about a year and a half, thats why i was wondering if i should do another break in.
he can"t remember what nitro he ran in it so i am using 20% and an OS #8 plug.
all in all it runs strong for an old savage 25, i love it
