Well at 146 Celsius it's heat cycled pretty much I must say

It's still has compression but it isn't superb anymore. Also blown 3 glowplugs but I think I had the wrong ones. Too hot needed a 6 or a 7 instead of a 5.

I'll see how it goes at our clubrace coming weekend. First one with the new 710. Think I only drive the 710 and not the 950r but who knows maybe I drive them both
