[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 387717, member: 15636"] Make sure you go headway speed, then throttle up to push her up on plane, then set easy cruising speed no higher than max for where you are in the break-in period. CHANGE the RPMs every 15-minutes, do NOT sit at one RPM. Most w/ 4-stokes "baby them" and never break the rings in right, then the motor weeps into the crank and they complain the engine 'makes oil' ... Pushing and powering her up onto plane is what you want to do. Not gentle, but not overly aggressive either ... [/QUOTE]
