Default New Motor Question
How many miles did you guys put on your new motor before you give it a good shake down? How did you drive it during break-in?

during break down dont have the engine driving at hte same rpm for a long time. every now and then slow down and then speed back up again or it will make the cylinders rough for reving the same all the time.

Get on it to seat the rings. Just remember to do a couple quick oil changes.
