Frequently Answers and Questions

What fuel is required for the Cuyuna engine?

What is the proper fuel/oil mixture ratio for the Cuyuna engine?
The recommended fuel/oil mixture ratio for the Cuyuna engine is 40:1.
What is the break-in procedure for a new Cuyuna engine?
For the first three (3) gallons of fuel used in a new or rebuilt engine, mix twice the amount of B.LLA. TC-W rated oil on a given amount of fuel (20:1 mix ratio), than is indicated in the section entitled, “Fuel Requirements”. Run the engine for one-half (V) hour under low load conditions at various engine speeds (RPM). Do not exceed one-half (V) throttle at this time, vary the throttle from idle to one-quarter (V) to one-half (V) throttle settings for short periods (30 seconds) during this time. This will assist in seating the piston rings properly. For the next V hour of engine operation, do not run the engine for sustained periods (more than 30 seconds) at throttle openings in excess of 34 throttle. Continue to vary the throttle during this break-in period.
What is the proper operating temperature for the Cuyuna engine?
The maximum CHT (cylinder head temperature) is 400°F. The maximum EGT (exhaust gas temperature) is 1275°F. The best power EGT is 1200°F.
How do I adjust the carburetor on the Cuyuna engine?
The Mikuni VM-type and BV-type carburetors used on current production Cuyuna engines are calibrated for standard day, sea level operation. Calibration was done using “Cuyuna” exhaust system, “Unifilter” foam air filter and a “Cuyuna” fuel pump. The amount of air drawn into the cylinders is influenced by such factors as the altitude, the temperature, humidity, etc. This section is provided to familiarize you with the carburetor systems and how to compensate for altitude and temperature changes.
