Should flooding occur,
When starting a gasoline
engine,
the engine should be allowed to warm
up
to
operating temperature, before the load is applied.
This requires only a few
minute s of running at moderate
speed.
R acing an engine or gunning it, to hurry
the warm-up period, is very destructive to the polished wearing
surfaces
on
pistons, rings, cylinders, bearings,
etc.
Running-in period
The various wearing surfaces on pistons,
rings,
cylinders, bearings, etc., in a
new engine have not been glazed, as they will be with continued operation,
and
it is in this period of "R UNNING-IN" that
special
care must be exercised,
otherwise the highly desired glaze will not be obtained. A newyvearing
surface
that has once been damaged by careles
snes
s will be
ruined
forever.
Therefore,
operate the engine at light loads for a period totaling about 40 HOURS, before
maximum load is
applied.
This will
greatly
increase engine life.
