Title: Aero One
Post by: YakNine on September 12, 2010, 07:43:48 PM

This question is for Randy Smith, I just picked up a 40th aniversary Fox .35 off Ebay It was all castored tight and pretty messy. I soaked it in straight methanol for a few days gave it a little heat and she loosened right up. I disassembled it and scrubbed each piece a few times in methanol blew everything out oiled it and reassembled it . I think it was only run a few times and is not fully broken in. Do you recomend your Aero One during break in on A Fox or do you wait until its broken in to add it to the fuel. I am a diesel mechanic and we generally don't run synthetic until after 2 oil changes as we have had trouble with the rings seating, I was wondering if your additive would prolong the break in on a Fox piston & liner. Thanks T.J.

HI

Yes run the Aero-1, the FOX is going to wear in and the Aero-1 will help the parts that get hotter than you want, One of the 7 ingrediants  is a  heat sensitive ingrediant  that works better as heat rises

Good tip - I'm assuming then that one should use Aero-1 during any engine break in.

Hi Geno,

Whenever I open a jug of fuel it always gets the Aero 1 added to it, first thing. ;D
