![]() Give it about 500 miles or so. Just drive it normal. Don't let it idle for long periods of time and make sure it is cooled off when you shut it down. I'd also stay away from long cruises at a constant rpm.
Are you sure you didn't line the rings up on that cyl ?? How about breaking a ring when you installed the piston?? Did you install the oil scraper correctly, no overlap???
