[TR] TR4A - First 500 miles done

[thenicholls at verizon.net]

What oil did you break in with and what oil are you planning on using from this point on?  Just changed to Brad Penn myself, weird pouring green oil into the TR...

Congrats!

Listers,

The first 500 "break-in" miles are now on the car, which I believe has "set"
the rings to the cylinders.
I am planning on performing the following tasks:

Change oil & filter
Inspect contents of filter for metal
Set valve lash
Torque the head
Change the plugs
Check the timing
Compression check (to get a baseline)

What else would you recommend?



Cheers,
