a few other things on the airplane before getting airborne but I am
wondering about methods to do the seating of the rings without actually
going flying at this point. I don't want to glaze the cylinders while I
am running it in.<<
I don't worry much about breaking the rings in....that's not a problem
with VW's. I just go fly the thing. After replacing cam and lifters
you need to run it for something like a half hour at 2500 rpms a few
times, but you didn't disturb those.
