BREAK-IN PROCEDURE

Engine break-in procedure

Rev 6 Engines highly recommends replacing intake boot adapters with new ones before start up. (No Sealants/Silicone)
  1. Make sure to bleed the coolant system thoroughly before starting the engine.
  2. Leave the radiator cap off.
  3. Start the engine and continue to bleed coolant until a steady stream of coolant is flowing from the bleeder screw and there is no air left in the system.
  4. Let the fan kick on and off and double check the bleeder at least one more time for any residual air in the system.
  5. Replace the radiator cap and let the fan kick on and off at least one more time.
  6. Stop engine, drain and replace oil and oil filter.

Use an “Engine Break In Oil” like Royal Purple, Amsoil, etc. with a high “ZINC” content. (Most break in oils are a straight 30W, or 40W).

These engines have not been run before being sent out!
Rings need time to seat to the cylinder, hence the reason to use “Break In Oil”. (Especially with Nikasil coated cylinders)

Some oil consumption is normal in the first 20-25 hour “Break In Period”.
Constantly monitor oil level before starting the engine to ensure no oil starvation happens.
Add if necessary!

If oil consumption is alarming or excessive, Contact Rev6 Customer Service as soon as possible!

If the oil begins to discolor and/or breakdown, change oil. oil change may be required any time between the 5-20hr mark.

After 20-25 hrs you can switch back to full synthetic oil, Polaris oil, Royal Purple, Amsoil, Lucas Etc..

Oil weight depends on riding style and cold/hot weather.
5w-50, 10w-50, 10w-40 Etc..

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to call customer service. We are happy to answer or assist in any way possible.

Transmission break-in procedure

Please use the following Break-in Procedure to ensure optimum performance of your replacement transmission.

    1. Run only Polaris AGL full synthetic transmission fluid. (All other oils must be approved by Rev6)
    2. Check oil level, add if necessary
    3. Vary speeds for 5 hours of run time
    4. Change oil after 5 hours (This helps remove fine metals from standard wear during break in.
    5. Pull light loads during break-in.
    6. Perform regular checks on fluids, controls and bolt torqs.
