I found that after running an engine hard a while it cools off slightly in temp. Sounds kinda weird, but it does cool off. I run Blue Thunder 20% regular blend. For mt sts mt12, i let it idle 2 tanks on my starter box. That's just my way of doing it. After, i ran it hard, but within limits. Like i said before, it didn't have descent instructions from a newbie's stand of point. But luckly i knew what's what and how to do it properly.
