Message: [QUOTE="Dan, post: 885533, member: 12188"] But... But.... But.... [ATTACH=full]125174[/ATTACH] Start it, let the coolant temp get up a bit, then full load full throttle on a dyno is how a Diesel engine should be broke in... If they idle too much (slobbering away), don't get hot, or combustion pressures aren't high enough after a fresh rebuild the cylinders will glaze up and you'll have oil consumption/ blow by issues... Those rings need to seat against the cylinder wall and the only way to properly do that is with heat and combustion pressure... At work after an inframe over haul trucks are immediately dynoed for 2+ hours for the break-in procedure... I'm not very good at explaining stuff but all I know is this is a diesel... 2 stroke dirt bikes are a little different story. [/QUOTE]
