Guardian.:
as above, if youve done it properly, gun it from the start, even engines these days dont need the old fashioned running in.




apart from land rover engines that might last the running in period :lol:

Xtremeteam:

--- Quote from: "mentalmoshio sophs V8i" ---only rev 2 2750rpm and dont tow anything heavy. all the torque will make it move easily enough

<yawn>

Evilgoat:
Never heard of a properly fitted head gasket needing running in.

WHAT I have heard of, is retorquing the bolts after running for a few minutes/miles. Not sure if that applies to the Disco

Suzuki 8V engine is run to warm up, then retorque.

Tommo:
nah, for a 200tdi its 30ft/lbs then 60 degrees twice (IIRC). so you cant re torque really otherwise you would break somthing!

Mr Alford:
lol we can see from this post who is mechanically minded and who is full of [!Expletive Deleted!] these posts amuse me lots
