Re: New Engine Break in Anxiety Woes

I would go the full 20/30 minutes first run rather than trying to spread it out with multiple shorter runs.

Remember, it's about bringing the components up to full operating temp as much as it is about mating/bedding the surfaces together. 10 minutes really isn't enough time to get there IMHO.

Hth,
