Magman, you said a few things that I have been itching to say for a while. Just because someone posts on here every eight minutes does not necessarily mean that they know what they are talking about. Some do, some don't. I have spent thousands of hours operating and maintaining Farmalls. Overhauled my first Farmall engine in about '75. Graduated from the University's Ag Mechanics school out by the Cowman's house in spite of unbridled alcoholism. So I think I can spot a blowhard on a lot of things, BUT I can also spot the guys that make me look like a mere PRETENDER. And I think that is what you have to do, kind of get a feeling where everyone is at on the ladder. So yeah, if someone was real green, no pun or offense intended, it could be a little risky to take expensive advice unless you were really confident in your advisor. But stuff usually does get corrected if it is way off. The only break-in related trouble I have personally witnessed was a 706 gas, I helped a hired man rebuild the motor, the owner jumped on it, pulled the throttle wide open and headed for home, scored a piston hard in less than a quarter mile. I overhauled my 560lp in '86, and out of desperation had to button it up and drive about 50 feet to the silage blower and pull it's jewels off for about a week, never a lick of trouble, used the same tractor this afternoon to bush hog. An old truck driver told me about delivering 7 and 806 diesels in MN? in the winter, and one dealer would blow them full of ether untill they started and then open them way up and back off the truck. Let us know what happened to your motor. Hope my next handle is not the Human Punching Bag, Bill
