Dang it, first problem appears with the revo.
#1
The freaking engine runs hotter than hell! Even with good smoke coming out the back. During break in it was like 240*. I had to richen it more than the factory setting just to keep the temps down.

After five tanks of break in (follow the procedures in the book), I started mashing the throttle only to find out that the temps are consistently around 250* without changing the hsn from the break in setting.

What's going on here? Any of you other revo guys had this problem or heard of it? Possible fixed. I'm not too impressed at the moment with the speed because it's so bloody rich just to keep the temps down. Hell, you can see fuel dripping out of the exhaust when it's sitting there idling.
