Is there a procedure for breaking an engine in on a Dyno or something?

 

I know I break my motorcycles in pretty hard, but that is because I want the rings to wear in on the hone perfectly.


If you are putting it on a dyno, I would probably just heat cycle it a few times. Then do a few 1/4 throttle runs until the rpm stop climbing. Check your tune. A few runs up to 4-5k rpm at approx 1/3 throttle, then 1/2 throttle. Make sure you check your tune regularly. (at this point, I would be doing a couple 3/4 and then a full throttle run on my bikes... but I don't know if that is applicable for rotary engines.)

This is How I do my motorcycle engines and any other piston engines. I don't see why this would be a bad idea on a rotary... however, I am not considered an expert in this field (by anyone at all)

 

Is this a complete "new rotor bearings" engine? If so, I usually run them in the shop for about a total of 4hrs going through about 5-7 heat cycles. Then take them to the chassis dyno for another hour of easy pulls like the ones described above. After that I run the **** out of them.
