What's the perferred method these days?
Driving-
1) Drive it hard frequently in order to properly set the piston rings and establish a good seal, also "setting in" the other bearings and seals by driving hard
2) Drive like a granny to be as gentle as possible to the fresh seals/rings/etc.
3) Drive normally
Oil
1) Change after 500 miles to get any metal shavings out from the new wear
2) Change at 3,000 miles like normal
3) just change the filter at 500 miles
Manual Tranny
When should I change the fluid on this? is 15,000 OK or should I do it sooner?
Planning on using 5W-30 Mobile 1 Synthetic + Purolator filter
