[QUOTE="mmsllc, post: 91524, member: 13117"] I'm pretty sure that if you run any machine at wide open throttle, you will find yourself needing a new engine (or a new job, if you work for someone else) very soon. I like to suit the engine speed to the job I am doing. If the machine seems weak, I'll give it a little more engine speed / RPM. However, I mainly run every machine I have at around 40% to 60% throttle. Can you imagine sitting in a machine all day with the throttle all the way up?? Wow!! I think I would either be totally deaf or out of my mind!! I going to say that this is a huge MYTH! It was most likely started by some well-intentioned guy & that it was taken out of context over many years. [/QUOTE]
