StarletRick Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 you need to run engines in fast mate. yeah, itll be looser, but loose engines run more HP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeeUK Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I used the Motoman method...search it.Basically he says the first 20 miles are crucial for running it in. I was reving to almost 6,000rpm within the first 20 miles Oil and filter change was after the first 20 miles also to get rid of all the metal filings, it is a good read and worked for me.

Si@Fiske Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 yeh i will change after 20, will also use a magnetic sump plug as hopefully that will collect most of the filings..and after reading that im very tempted to go with that method gee..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletRick Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 similar to how i did it. rev the shit out of it. with regular oil changes. the amount of metal in the oil, is fecking scary! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Si@Fiske Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 hmm... will have to decide, i think the science about the rings not sealing properly if taken easy is quite convincing though.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeeUK Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 A few on TGTT have applied this method too and they have no problems.Do which ever you are comfortable with mate. Both methods basically work, but one method brings better results Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletRick Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 you got any magnets in the oil system? you cant see the oil filings when they are hanging in the oil. as they are so tiny you cant see them. i have a magnet in my oil filter and on the sump plug. its once you get a magnet in there that they all come together into a metallic paste.

GeeUK Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I used a magnetic sump plug and I had loads of filings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Si@Fiske Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 i shall be using one too.. its odd how you didnt have many dub.. and the rings have deff sealed properly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletRick Posted May 21, 2008 Author Share Posted May 21, 2008 yup, had a magetic oil plug, sard magnetic filter and also kept the old oil and sifted through that with a magnet. zilcho. we expected to find loads so were puzzled to find nowt.have you raelly given it some beans yet?
