sorry, that came off a little harsh - not intended. im taking time outs from a frustratin literature review of my own to post here - i guess theres a bit of carry over Razz

i know where your coming from, dont worry, and i agree theres 2 clearly separated schools of thought. but there is some common ground there too, ie oil selction, and regularity of oil changes.

and on that topic, if you really want to be pedantic, you should probably do an oil change straight after the first warm up, before the flogging... i dare you to resist going for a drive though - esp when the MO is to flog it "i have to, officer!"

if you hit google, i can tell you now youll find lots of actual evidence, usually measured in final peak cyl crcanking pressure, for the 'flog it' approach, and SFA for the 'volvo' approach.

just think to yourself... "what makes sense"

and the numbers are there to back it up
