Got myself a new SIRIO X3 engine but there’s no specific engine break in instructions or methods
Do I spend the extra money and send it away for oil bath break in or shall I just do it myself ?
Got a heat gun etc so no issue with equipment
Other thing is You Tube is awash with so many different methods do I follow any in particular
Adam Drake ? Elliot Boots

Unsure 🫤

Yes ,it will save you fuel on break-in an the head ache ,also it relieves the pressure off the rod & piston
when it is being forced to be broke in with an overly rich fuel setting!

The new heat bath break-in is pure genus an is well worth it!..;):thumbs-up::cool:
