July 31, 200618 yr Author comment_176571 Saturday, I got the engine started up. It fired immediately on the first try! Sounded great. I decided not to run it at 2000 for 30 minutes. I ended up running it for about 15 minutes at 1500 to get it fully warmed up for its maiden voyage. Then I followed my original plan. Got about 50 miles on it by Sunday. It is running very smooth and strong. I am driving it to work all week so I can drive around at lunch get some miles on it.Man is it great to have that car back on the road!Thanks for all the recommendations, they are greatly appreciated.Marty Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20966-new-engine-start-up/?&page=3#findComment-176571 Share on other sites More sharing options...
