    When I put the drops into the carb do I take the glow plug wire off and turn the motor with the easy start to circulat the oil??

    1. take off the air cleaner
    2. add 3 or 4 drops into the carb
    3. turn the motor over by hand using the flywheel (turn it over a few times
    4. put the air cleaner back on

    Just to add a little...
    It's best to put the A-R-O in a closed carb, then open and close it a couple times to keep that lubed... then follow steps 3 and 4...

    IMPORTANT?

    I never used after run oil! Will my engine die quicker than usual especially because I run my engine on extra-lean settings?

    well leaning on "extra-lean settings" will damage the motor by itself. even if you did use a-r-o you would still damage the motor fairly quick. a-r-o just lubes the internal parts of the motor, since nitro can gumm up. that is how a-r-o helps engine life

    The a-r-o is also a WD (water displacer) nitro fuel will attract moisture, and that moisture will rust the steel parts of the engine (crank shaft, wrist pin, g-clip, starter shaft, one way bearing, glow plug)
