    no real time at each rpm range just kinda fell it out with short burst up to top end.
    i was under the thought that i had to let idel for a while then no more than 2500 rpm's for a while then the same for each 1000 rpms above 2500. some one please help give me the proper break in procedure. this time was under warrenty but warrenty runs out in 3 months and i dont want to go with out my boat for another month.
    please help

    Your mechanic should have set the EMM to break in mode to double oil it, I'd vary the RPM's for the first five hours.
