Please don't break an engine in with temps so cold. That just breaks my heart cause you have to run it way rich which puts way too much stress on the con rod. OUCH !! Good luck.

It looks perfect, since you said you wiped it. At first I thought you might have been running a little lean.

Here's a 2.5 I was running a few years ago. Perfect tune about 2 gallons in.

For a good motor I would wait until the 70's

I think it is the cylinder sleeve??? Being tapered towards the top and literally pinches the piston
