Someone put up a link not so long ago to a running in instruction page that said to give it a hammering straight away. It went on about how bores are honed much finer these days & the rings don't have long to bed in properly & that you should warm the engine up & then give it a 50% throttle run to about 60% revs 2 times, then 75% throttle to %80 revs a couple times, then full throttle to redline a couple times. It also made the point that without moderate cylinder pressure there is no force on the rings pushing them against the bores, which I can understand.
The site may have been just a big joke on gullible fools, but it was pretty convincing.
It's worth the read at least. Ayone remember it?
