Gee, net wisdom! So I also learn some car technical words in English I never heard before, and I learn them on c.s.a. (Is this what they call Multitasking? :-) I once heard a tip for that break in period (BTW, if you would translate the German word for this directly, it would get "drive in", funny?): The best method to get the motor through its youth is "to be a bad driver", driving hectically at very different speeds and different RPMs. As this poster said, it is necessary to have the motor run at all different speeds and at rapidly changing speeds. You shouldn't overload it in this time, though. -- Best regards, Dr. Peter Kittel // E-Mail to \\ Only my personal opinions...
