Default RE: Scared to break my car in

dont get all scared about break-in. these engines are not as picky as people say they are. just as long as you make sure its running good and rich and not overheating. you'll be fine. really almost everyone i meet has thier own way of breaking in a engine. I let mine idle for a couple tanks and then drive it around at about 1/4 throttle. I then just keep opening the throttle up further each tank until i can hit full throttle but still on a very rich setting, after that i tune it for performance.
