STARTING/WEARING IN NEW ENGINE update Sun, 13 November 2005 08:35 Go to previous message
hey fella's after about 4 months my celica is just about ready to get going again. 4 months of dust have also collected on it.

i've:
dropped new motor in there ("supposed" to have only done 100K k's)
replaced clutch
replaced engine mounts
replaced gearbox (second hand, but should have good syncro's)
couple of other bits and piece's


just wondering is there anything i should go over before firing her up. and how should i go about wearing this engine in, obvisouly kicking it over and then red lineing it for 5 mins flat wouldnt be a good idea.
but is it ok to say start it up idle it for about 10 mins or so and then it'd be driveable?
