98 gti with a 717 engine
I just had my Engine and carb rebuilt including changing out all fuel and oil lines. I also had a new manifold put on. Right now I am in the break in stage running 50:1 premixed along with what ever the injection system puts out. I have about 4 hours on the new engine
I noticed a vibration that I didnt get from my last engine
All the bolts are backing out of my tune pipe / manifold connection and then i get a hull full of water.
if I squeeze the throttle it bogs down but it I give it a little throttle and then punch it it takes off normal
top speed is 42mphs. My last engine I got 47 out of it. I opened it up for a few seconds to see what it does. I have been following the SBT break in procedure
