    Break In

    I just went and bought a new jato today and i got through my first tank and during the break it started raining. Is it alright if I wait longer than 15 minutes to start the next tank or is it sup post to be exactly 15 min?
    Thanks!

    No not at all. You can wait as long as you want. It's a heat cycle deal. They want you to get it around 200 degrees 1/8 throttle for a second or 2 and let off. The first two tanks your just heat cycle the piston and sleeve this is why they want it total cooled off at room temp. Now your second tank repeat and total let it cool off. Then go threw the rest of the break in

    What about after the first two tanks. Are you support to do the next three without letting it cool off or can you let it cool off?

    I'm waiting for the admin to delete one of your accounts, I always found it strange as to why people want to post to themselves....
