Alright, so I need I guess one more tank for the engine to be broken in, but just to be safe, how will I exactly know when it is broken in?
 
After about 10 tanks is when you can safely assume it's broken in. It won't fully awaken until about the gallon mark though.
 
Ah okay. The dude at the LHS told me to idle through 3 tanks. I guess I'm not done yet. Oh, I'm not idleing through them though, I'm just pumping them at about half throttle. So I guess 8 more tanks?
