Hi all,
I have recently read through the article on proper break-in procedure here http://www.myturbodiesel.com/1000q/enginebreakin.htm.
There is something I would like to clarify though.
Under the sub-topic "Proper new engine break in procedure (can really apply to any modern water cooled passenger car engine)", the writer mentioned this term "% power or throttle" several times.
For example,
For all the above phrase in bold, what does it refer to actually? Does it refer to the rpm (i.e., 75% power means 75% of the redline rpm)?
OR
Does it refer to how you press the accelerator pedal (i.e., 100% power or throttle means you totally floor the accelerator pedal)?
