If it runs seriously rich for too long engine can seize up with bore wash, just cleans all the oil from the cylinders.

I had mine set up before it was fully run in. NOT thrashed just making sure it was fuelling correctly whilst running in

better to have the fueling set-up roughly so it does not wash the bores other wise you new engine will be pointless
