How do you break in the engine the best way? The owners manual says to not apply more than1/2 to 3/4 of throttle for the first 5 hours. But the dealer said very slow the first hour, the second hour you can just get it to plane for a few seconds. In the third you can apply 1/2 throttle and in the fourth 3/4 throttle. Fifth hour you can apply full throttle in short periods. He also said to not accelerate quick, but gradually.
I just finished the third hour and have follwed all his insructions, but why does the manual say 1/2 to 3/4 throttle and the dealer something else?
Does it hurt the engine if it's not propely broke in/ less effect or just shorter engine life?
