Re: Make slowboy not so slow

I did vacuum pulls and other random driving (accel, decel, etc) around town for 20 miles today. Smoked a decent amount at first, but less now. Still smokes a little though. I plan to drive it again tonight doing the same thing, and again tomorrow a couple times.

Something seems to be rubbing on the motor side of the timing belt, it looks a little glazed over on that part of it. So I'll probably fix that tomorrow.

When should I expect the smoking to stop? Is this because the rings aren't fully bedded yet?

Oh yea, I'm going to borrow a compression tester and see how it's doing so far. Then check again in a few days.
