I always use method 2.....lots of strong engines with little oil usage.
Any experts on this? The manual says approx. 1250 miles before revving beyond 4000 rpms and exceeding speeds above 100 mph, but Iīve heard about this instant-flat-out-non-gentle-run-in before. Somehow it makes sense but, I donīt know..
