Yes, it is good gas. No, you do not have to break in your engine. If you swithch from 10 to 20 percent, u might have to richen up the carb a tad. It depends on what the temperature of the engine was when you were running 10 percent. But it should be fine. Hope that helps frog http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/smile.gif.

Blue Thunder is some great stuff! But, when you change gas, i suggest richening it up, because the only fuel that i know of out there puts the lubricant % on, so, that is why you otta lean it out.

Go ahead and richen it out and let it idle like you said. You should always breakin an engine when you switch fuels. You should also try and avoid going down in nitro content (not a problem in your case) because lower nitro content fuels actually burn hotter.
