I don't consider break-in runs boring, you have to listen carefully and make adecuate adjustmens to get better results. Bella as always atracting reflectors, as the star of most videos!
When I broke my 182t in I tried not to rev or stress it at all. so I let her idle through 3tanks of 10ounces. Painfully slow but worth it in the end as my 182 does almost 500 rpm more than my fathers!
Hi David, as always a great video to your collection thanks for sharing. My curiosity is getting the better of me now… I see on the 182 there are two glow plugs per head does that mean that an on-board glow setup would need 4 terminals?
Hell of an engine, can't wait to see and hear it when fully run in... Love the clips of Bella!
David I like your garden and the sound of the birds, you need to adopt a new friend to enjoy that nature together.
Well the squirrels, lizards, and song birds are much more at ease now. One less predator to hunt them. Of course my mole control is gone also.

Loved the Bella clip....and the FA-182TDP is nice as well!!
Cool seeing the condensation on the intake tubes. Cool sounding firing seqeunce.

No, not at all. The two forward plugs become ignited by the combustion process.
@@dmrcflyr2 Thanks for the quick reply, I'll be putting one of these beauties into a 1/3 scale Druine Turbulent soon. Thanks again for the help.
What are your Idle screw settings on this, I’ve got this engine and I’m struggling to get her started I’m

David McIntire perfect thankyou, so you’ve got the right cylinder Low speed opened more than the left just to confirm
Can it swing a bigger prop once it's fully broken in?
