Engine Break-In Procedure

Fill the engine with 5W50 full synthetic engine oil. For the first 500 miles of operation do not drive for long periods at any single speed, always vary your speed. Do not tow a trailer or put other heavy loads on the vehicle. Check the engine oil and coolant levels daily. At 500 Miles change the engine oil and filter. Check fuel and ignition settings; adjust valves (where applicable).
