That's it in a nutshell. Top editing!Stesaw wrote:When I asked ajsimmo his response was
20 mins at 2k, and then you can vary it between 1.5k and 2.5k, just don't let it idle at all in that first 20 mins.
When driving the van on challenging roads it's better to change down and rev above 3k at part throttle than to hold the higher gear longer than normal and start to labour a bit.
The running in oil depends what it is. If the high zinc stuff i recommend then i leave it in for 500 miles, then oil change and add some Camshield oil additive.
When setting timing just set it roughly on the marks, timing light connected up, and start it up. Straight up to 2000rpm whilst briefly letting revs drop (for just a few seconds) to check the timing isn't wildly out. If it's within 5 degrees or so either way it's near enough. Do the 20 mins break in, then tweak the timing.
Just had to E D I T it a bit so it made more sense (i hope) as this was from a conversation.
