Not trying to be combative at all so sorry Doc. However, I do disagree. Your original question asked...

Quote:
Please let me know how you understand "heat cycling" and how you heat cycle a new or overhauled engine.
What I and gasgasman replied was relevant to the discussion. I explained how I understood heat cycling after my 30+ years of building car and motorcycle engines and to what extent I do heat cycle and he agreed and said why. Of course, heat cycling an engine surely won't hurt anything!

Also, it is here as reference for future members who search about heat cycling. The discussion can be useful showing all points including those that say it is completely unnecessary. Remember, keep an open mind! <cough>ATF<cough>
