Removed cylinder #3 and had it overhauled. The engine has about 950 hours TT and that cyl had some oil blow by (always had a oily wet plug). I changed oil to mineral oil after repairs. My question is, how long should I run that oil before changing it? I did all the recommended break in procedures. Seems that it burns more oil now (although plug is dry) but I?m hoping that part of the break in. I?ve got 15 hours in the break in oil.
Also, is it worth doing oil analysis? Or will there be high metal content from the ring break in?
