It can also take up to 10,000 miles to "break-in" an engine.

You're doing it wrong. noway


I've never done it... I don't buy new cars. This was told to me by a Ford employee. And I mean to obtain optimum efficient mileage only. My comment, in its original statement, was linked to fuel efficiency. smokin
I figured as much. I'm guessing you were speaking with either a technician or a service writer. I've had customers tell me the same thing and it came from one of those two. I also heard that from a GM drivetrain engineer....who had been fired. bigsmile

Typical break-in periods for optimum fuel mileage are just that....."typical". Heat cycles are how internal combustion engines "seat" their rings and seal valve to seat contact areas. I have personally seen people follow the manufacturer's guidelines for the "break-in period" and the car will suck on mileage. Others have done their own break in and the car responds great while getting superior mileage. Choice of engine oil weight and gasoline quality are also critical choices in getting an engine to "seal" properly.

Most modern engines can be properly broken in and sealed within 2000-3000 miles if done properly. We normally suggest that the customer take the car out on the highway for a day. Travel at different speeds for an hour or two at a time. Drive at 70 for an hour or two then stop and let the car completely cool. Get back in and drive at 60 for an hour or so. Stop and let it cool again. Repeat this for about eight hours. If possible, do so another day. Change the engine oil and filter then go about your daily life. This usually results in superior performance and fuel mileage. Puttering around town for 5000 miles leads to poor mileage and increased wear.

Isn't being "good" the same as being "nice"?????
Nope.

"Good" and "Evil" are a point of view.

To "rate" me is the same as to "judge" me. And personally, judge me all you want. Just keep the damn verdict to yourself.

Damn....Krull. That brings back some old memories!!! Great flick. Best line of the whole movie:

"Love is fleeting. Power is eternal."

How true.

He's lucky that stuff is scripted or he'd need serious dental work after that right hand from Big Show last night.

Don't bother. Not worth the price of the matinee admission price. Best thing about the whole movie was the Coke and Reece's Pieces.
