Volks,

Some may remember I got an engine rebuild that refused to seat the rings.
Burned about a qt/800 miles.  After many miles, 16000, I put in non
detergent oil.  No change.  Someone recommended running it up to 5000 rpm
for 10 minutes then letting it cool down slowing a couple of times.

I did this once and the oil usage is 1 at/1500 miles.  I'm tempted to try it
again but for my concern about rod and main bearings, and I guess rod bolts
as it's a 2.1.

Any opinions, or actual facts, about this?

Mike
