Re: [alfa] Engine break in.



i don't think there is much controversy about the need to run the
engine hard (e.g. several runs of full throttle from 30 to 50mph in
4th gear according to my hastings instructions), and let it idle as
little as possible before doing so.

what was your break-in procedure the first go-round?
