HYPER 18 ENGINE
PART # 53121
Thank you for purchasing a OFNA engine. We appreciate your choice and know you will enjoy running it. Please
note that the OFNA information in engine box is subject to change without notice.
NEW ENGINE BREAK-IN
Your OFNA engine is extremely tight when the piston is at the top of the stroke and turning the crankshaft by hand. This is normal for a new ABC type engine. The piston and sleeve are matched for fit and the top of the sleeve is tapered for a tight fit. As you run your engine, this tightness Should diminish. There is no cause for alarm, because as the engine warms up, the brass sleeve will expand faster than the aluminum piston and the engine will turn free.
As with any new engine, there are many high spots and tight fits in the matching process. High spots create hot spots that must be broke-in. Therefore, the break-in process is very important to provide good service by the engine. So, you must run the engine rich (COOL) for the first two tanks of fuel. We recommend using 20% O’Donnell 0R BYRON’S 2000 as break-in fuel. Other break-in type fuels or added oil is NOT needed. DO NOT OVER REV. THE THE ENGINE WHEN FIRST STARTING, this could break the rod, piston and over heat the sleeve. Let the engine run at low RPM for one tank to break-in connecting rod bearing before starting full break-in.
Break-in the engine in the car, by running the engine at a rich setting. Factory high end or master needle is 4 turn
Out from all the way close. Run the car from a slow to fast speed with short bursts of speed. You need to build
Little heat in the engine, but not too hot. In a rich setting, the engine will run cool. In the leaner setting the engine run Hot running hot is NOT good yet. Do not heat up the engine too much at this time. After about two (2) tank, turn the Master Needle Valve, clock wise, 1/8 of a turn leaner or clockwise. Keeping the fuel tank full, continue the process until you slowly turn the Master Needle Valve, 1/8 of turn each time, to a leaner point and in which the
engine runs at high RPM and power and the master needle should be at 3-3.5 turn out from close, but still keeping
The MAX TEMP UNDER 250 DEGREES F.
If you go over 250 degrees it is too lean of a setting and will over heat the engine and damage the piston.
Normal operating temperature is around 220 to 250 Deg.
Engine an shorten the life of the motor.
Temperatures of 260 Deg. and above will damage
NEEDLE SETTINGS After break-in:
Master Needle Valve - (High End) Set at 3 to 31/2 turns from closed. Adjust this needle for maximum RPM and power without being too lean or too hot. Make sure you start at bottom of needle seat!!
Mid Range needle - The brass needle on the side of the carb. DO NOT TOUCH.
Side Carb. Needle (Low Speed) - This needle is in the center side of the carburetor where the blue boot is, provide Throttle response. It is not the idle adjustment. Set NEEDLE flush with the ball end. Turning in is Lean and Out is Rich.
Do not adjust
Barrel Stop Screws - Used for adjusting Idle: Set for 1/16th inch gap to start new engines. You can open more for faster idle.
This needle until the Master Needle is set for power and top speed. This will only effect throttle response.
OFNA/PICCO GLOW PLUG IS RECOMMENDED
