Stan<br /><br />I love it when a plan comes together. What's your break-in pocedure? How long on the 25:1? I may be following in your footsteps soon. Oh yeah, who are all those shady characters in your video? Just kidding. :) <br /><br />Dave..

Re: Wow, it runs! Inline 6 videos...

Im planning on running 100 litres on 25:1 then go straight to 50:1. Im sure that will be sufficient...<br /><br />I pulled the plugs and ran a quick comp test, it has only ran for 20 minutes at idle so the rings will be far from seated yet...<br /><br />1 - 129 / 2 - 122 / 3 - 125 / 4 - 127 / 5 - 127 / 6 - 122<br /><br />Bottom plug was "very" clean in compared to the rest though I could see no water droplets at all, why would this be? I fitted new crank seals in the bottom, surely not the exhaust plate again.... arrgggg freekin out..<br /><br />Also played with the timing and in order to get it to advance to 5 degrees after TDC for "timing event one" I had to adjust the distributor plate all the way, is this normal or am I a tooth out?<br /><br />Thanks Again<br /><br /><br />Stan

Bottom plug seees a bit more steam in general, even without a problem at all.<br /><br />-W

Is it normal for the bottom plug to be clean like that then? <br /><br />I ran it for about 30 mins on 25:1<br /><br />Just worried that a problem is still there....<br /><br />Stan

I agree with Clams don't worry about it :) <br />If she starts drinking water you will probably notice it on the other plugs as well ... at least on mine I did on 5 and 6 and mine was hardly leaking. Get out there and get some hours on her! :) :) <br />Jon

Ya... don't be worried.... my #6 plug is always clean too. <br /><br />And the process for a pre-emtive strike and actually fixing a resultant problem are almost 50/50. <br /><br />-W
