Default RE: Break in Thread

I would give it several short runs at WOT and gradually lean each one out. After a few runs tune it and drive it as you normally would. As long as you get it up to temp and don't do any prolonged idling is best. A good breakin should be accomplished in less than 10-15 runs of 2- 3 minutes each. Anything above that is really useless and just a waste.

Thanks for the info, It makes a lot of sense but now I am at the middle of my break in and now dont know what to do, if change it or just finish it. I think may be I will do a mix of both, I was going to do what I said in the past post but decided to do WOT method at very rich settings , now I have about 10 tanks, what do you suggest I should do? should I just keep with this break in or bring the engine to 200 temps and cycling.
