A good Nitro engine I think can last over 12 gallons of Nitro. If you do not break in a Nitro engine it will run very poorly and have a very short life ( I am not sure though, it might run normall but for a very short time). Here this may help: http://www.myrcbox.com/?p=972

You have to break it in if you wan`t a good engine. I used 4 tanks in mine.

Depends on the fuel tank size of course. Different vehicles have different sized fuel tanks. A quart is approximately 946.353 cc, so do the math.

You have the Hyperspeed right? If so and if you do 5 tanks for the break-in, I`m pretty sure you will have 5 tanks left, but I might be wrong?
