Re: crossfire on the way...
ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
The engine of your new crossfire does not require a long break-in period. Following these few simple guidelines is all that is necessary for a good break-in.
-- Drive your vehicle at moderate vehicle and engine speeds during the first 1,000 miles.
-- Do not make any full throttle starts and avoid full throttle acceleration.
-- Use the proper transmission gear for your speed range.
-- Avoid excessive idling.
-- Check the engine oil level at every fuel fill.
NOTE: A new engine may consume oil during the first few thousand miles of operation. This should be considered as a normal part of the break-in and not an indication of a problem.
