Stoneweapon....

....the info in those links are just great about rings "wearing in". You can do it
in 10 minutes.....or you can do it with 2-3 gallons of fuel on the bench.

I always get a kick when a guy says he did a careful "bench run-it" with a 4-stroke
engine.....and got a reiable idle after two gallons....

....very funny stuff. [sm=bananahead.gif]

FBD.
