I rebuilt a NR 5P today.. new P/L and Rod.. I went to the pond and took off the water line,.. ran 6 tanks super rich so that the motor would not really get on the pipe,.. it came in pretty warm,.. running lots of fuel through the motor. The last tank I put the water back on and leaned out a bit... at the end I was able to start the motor with the plug tight and I brought it up to maybe 40 mph. I think this process of break in really works well. The liner looks nice and is getting the polish that took tons of fuel when done with cooling water...
My point... The isea of break in with not water to get hot,.. and running real rich seems to work very well... still real tight at the top,.. but not bad now at all...
real pleased....
