  • Break in. I've seen several different techniques on here, and they're all pretty sound. I do like Rex's approach at preheating to 240 deg (F), and then turning over. I recommend going to at least 190, but do not exceed normal running temperature. If the piston gets stuck at the top, heat it up more.
when are we going to see the web site working and some product?
