now you got me confused, what is the difference between "petrol" & "gas" in down under lingo? I always thought they were synonymous as no one refers to petrol in the US, only gas. But there is "pump" gas & "race" gas & "Av gas" (aviation)& of course diesel, bio-diesel, etc....

enlighten us please!

I went for the ring manufacturer's recommendation for thier chromium rings but did my first oil change at around 300km

just a quick question- how long would it take to bed in new rings?

ive read every thing from 100kms to 5000kms

same for bearings, as they dont need retensioning(bearing caps), basically they should bed in almost straight away.

just curious as 1200 has not run on gas yet, just petrol and not covered much distance. Would like to put back onto gas asap and get tuned for cruise time.
