BigFella_73: can you see the pattern emerging in the advice?
warm up engine
put it under variable load
avoid excessive idling
avoid loading engine at idle-speed revs
use suitable oil
remember, your rings bed in within seconds/minutes of first startup - 15min of idle will simply polish them up on a fast path to smokey engine. Engine bearings take longer, but the theory is the same (variable load, healthy revs, no lugging). Don't forget that part of the reason for a 'good thrashing' is to wear in the bearings while keeping the oil pressure up.
