If it is difficult to start without priming, then it is perfectly
alright to prime it the way it said for break in. Each engine
developes their own quirks, some will start easily without priming,
some will not. I have a Magnum .91 four stroke that I do not have to
prime at all, usually starts right up on the first or second flip. I
have a Super Tigre .45 two stroke that requires the most priming I
have seen needed in an engine, but usually only for the first
starting of the day.
