I thought that 3/4 of a Gallon was about the norm for breaking in a engine.... Well mine is ruuning great as far as engine goes.... my main issue now is trying to get third gear.... I am only getting one gear change... I have screwed third gear setting all the way in to confirm it was second that I could hear shifting.... it was... even with just hitting second my tyres ballon so I can't wait to hit third gear..... My 180degree extractor has a dent in it now aswell.... in your opinions would this create excessive heat in the exhaust? the rubber coupler between extractor and tuned exhaust is turning all soft from the heat.... is that normal? I never noticed it before now .... ohwell time to pull down for the millionth time lol
