Hi everyone. Well, after i finally got my sr installed and started, I was unable to break it in because of a bad oil feed line to my turbo (it had a hole in it). So, because the car is at my parents house 500 miles away (i am going to college for automotive tech) I will not be able to tune or work on it probably until next spring. My dad is going to to install the new line, and top off the oil, but the engine is no longer broke in, and my dad has not the slightest clue on how to tune with the power fc. So, I was just wondering if it would hurt the new engine in any way to leave it sit until around january. I am asking this because the cams aren't broken in or anything yet. Then engine has probly ran for around 15 min total, only around 5 minutes at a time. Would it be okay, just to follow the "winterize your vehicle" article in the tech section of this website, or are there additional steps I should take, just because it is not broke in yet? Please let me know what you think. Thanks -Derek
