    10 Hour Break In ?

    I have a 2024 250 Pro XS and just finished the 10 hour break in. My marina can’t get me in for the oil change for a few weeks and my question is whether it’s ok to run full throttle for a 20 minute run with the original oil?

    Wrong Forum- moving your post to the 4-stroke forum.

    Please be sure to update your post with the engine serial number (required). Thanks!

    In answer to your question- it's ok to do that. Good idea to service it at or near 3 Months or 20 hours, whichever occurs first.
