New(to me) motor installed,purring like a kitten.
When my mechanic first put it in,He called me saying it was bad and making all kinds of noiseI called the place where I bought it.The guy said just drive it for 50 miles or so and it would SETTLE in
He was right.I guess when they have been sitting on a shelf with no oil for months,they get kinda stiff.
Now to see if it's an oil burner alsoStay tuned

Scott, glad your back in the saddle.....fingers crossed on oil burning....
Ask forgiveness, not permission.

That's what I would think,but gas goes bad,so oil probably does too.

I'll ask about the oil in the motor for storage!
