Claude,


There is absolutely no doubt in my mind, about the possibility to perform the break-in, at 5-10° C.

You can prime the engine by raising the piston to mask the exhaust port (turn the propeller a bit) and blowing into the silencer.

The pressure created in the silencer and in the fuel tank, pushes fuel into the carburettor.


I never measured the 1/4-mile, as there is no drag-strip in this country; just 0-100 kph...
It is not a drag race car, but my family car and it is even automatic.

Here, this model is considered an executive car was never sold with a standard shift gearbox.
