Oil filter is changed also after the bench breaking-in and power curves. Make sure to clean carefully
all oil pipes and oil tank (in bellhousing) before you mount a new or rebuilt engine in the car.

5.2 General:

Prevent the engine loom and the ECU loom from unlikely conditions that could cause damages:
- do not crush the loom.
- avoid friction on sharp or exposed edges.
- use preventive devices such as rub wraps where it is necessary.
- design a proper thermal insulation in order to protect the alternator and its loom.
- make sure that all electronic devices are properly fixed and cannot be damaged by vibrations.

5.3 Maintenance after each event:

- check the loom and all connectors.
- check all power connections on alternator, electric starter, chassis ground and power.
