There is also a section on owners manuals that should cover that, all 1.8l n/a engines are the same - any 240/242 manual will do

First 30 minutes idle only after that one hour 5000 RPM 1 hour 6000rpm

EDIT: I guess @4wheeldeal bet me to it, lol. Also - vary the RPM.

Thank you very much Swatski......

Dealer told me our boats are put into rental service new and they haven't seen one come back yet due to break in procedure. I idled ours out onto Lake Seminole for about 5 minutes, then eased on up to 3500~ for a few. Then planed out at 6k rpm for a few laps. I still have a hard time running WOT. Just a mental thing. I like 6-6500rpm, 25-30~mph for the best ride and fuel mileage. 8000 rpm makes me cringe. One day I'll get comfortable with it.
