I earlier posted about buying a rebuilt Johnson motor and trading in my old rude, I took the advice offered and traded my old rude for this 1990 rebuilt johnson. On the way home put some new gas in the tank,added oil at 50-1, and then added a little more as advised by wrench whom I purchased motor from. I stopped at landing on way hoem and dropped her in, ran great, with my brother in law and myself in boat planed right out and ran like a top. I varied engine rpm's as instructed.and ran up and down the river for approxiamately 30 minutes. My question is this how long is the break-in period for a rebuild of this nature? This is a 1990 60 hp Johnson bored .30 over, new pistons rings etc. How long before I can run WOT and hold her there?
