"...engine break in oil.
How long do I run this stuff..." 20 - 40 min
(Fill ur oil filter 1/2 way, spin oil pump 2 prime whole oil sys. watch at top end have V/C off). Put cover on -
20 - 40 min @ 2 to 2,5K rpm, then drain (pan too)
& reg oil (10/40, 10/30) but change that out'n do exh mani bolt re tq w/100 mi.
Then 500 mi (re tq), (look in pan for any more metal shavings) then 1,000 mi (re tq). Good 2 go 4 reg changes. Keep eyes on temp gauge/H2O levels, oil temp/pressure.

I run Zink additive all the time on flat tappet motors, Brake in is the most critical, but you need a small amount of Zink all the time, not just for brake in.
