QUOTE(Krovaxq @ Jun 11 2009, 04:17 PM) i oso wana do break in as soon as i get my car! haha....i found the article after ive done 1st service..not sure..but just read through it doesnt matter what engine oil we use right(from factory)..they recommended us to use those cheaper 1 coz dowan to waste right? but if by default we already get semi-syn, then jz go for it issit? jz break in, and flush the next 2 days ? or 500km? 1st 20 miles? QUOTE Use Valvoline, Halvoline, or similar 10 w 40 Petroleum Car Oil for at least 2 full days of hard racing or 1,500 miles of street riding / driving. After that use your favorite brand of oil. i think he means use other than synthethic for first 1,500 miles of street driving QUOTE Change Your Oil Right Away !! The best thing you can do for your engine is to change your oil and filter after the first 20 miles. Most of the wearing in process happens immediately, creating a lot of metal in the oil. Plus, the amount of leftover machining chips and other crud left behind in the manufacturing process is simply amazing !! You want to flush that stuff out before it gets recycled and embedded in the transmission gears, and oil pump etc... yeah flush after 20miles first run then put non synthethic again then do break in QUOTE Because of the wind resistance, you don't need to use higher gears like you would on a dyno machine. The main thing is to load the engine by opening the throttle hard in 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear. Realistically, you won't be able to do full throttle runs even in 2nd gear on most bikes without exceeding 65 mph / 104 kph. The best method is to alternate between short bursts of hard acceleration and deceleration. You don't have to go over 65 mph / 104 kph to properly load the rings. Also, make sure that you're not being followed by another bike or car when you decelerate, most drivers won't expect that you'll suddenly slow down, and we don't want anyone to get hit from behind !! The biggest problem with breaking your engine in on the street (besides police) is if you ride the bike on the freeway (too little throttle = not enough pressure on the rings) or if you get stuck in slow city traffic. For the first 200 miles or so, get out into the country where you can vary the speed more and run it through the gears ! Be Safe On The Street ! Watch your speed ! When you're not used to the handling of a new vehicle, you should accelerate only on the straightaways, then slow down extra early for the turns. Remember that both hard acceleration and hard engine braking (deceleration) are equally important during the break in process. rite? so for break in process. u need to use non synthetic oil. maybe anyone can simplify this into steps. easier to follow. QUOTE Q: If break- in happens so quickly, why do you recommend using petroleum break- in oil for 1500 miles ?? This post has been edited by xshiro: Jun 11 2009, 05:13 PMA: Because while about 80% of the ring sealing takes place in the first hour of running the engine, the last 20% of the process takes a longer time. Street riding isn't a controlled environment, so most of the mileage may not be in "ring loading mode". Synthetic oil is so slippery that it actually "arrests" the break in process before the rings can seal completely. I've had a few customers who switched to synthetic oil too soon, and the rings never sealed properly no matter how hard they rode. Taking a new engine apart to re - ring it is the last thing anyone wants to do, so I recommend a lot of mileage before switching to synthetic. It's really a "better safe than sorry" situation. Q: My bike comes with synthetic oil from the factory, what should I do ?? A: I recommend changing the factory installed synthetic oil back to petroleum for the break-in period. |

QUOTE(lanlee @ Jun 12 2009, 01:06 PM) OXY sensor after cat, why they didnt use it, it should give more accurate reading for more accurate fc. My iafm 1st time failed. i think its quite common for car to use one. maybe they will use both sensor for export version to UK maybe where emission standard is quite strictAdded on June 12, 2009, 1:18 pm QUOTE(Aurora @ Jun 12 2009, 01:13 PM) After reading many many post from different user, forumer, the drive to get BLM become less and less. yes..i agree...ive change once...lets see if it happens again in another few months. they said they replaced a better ones or improved version on mine . hopefully it wont happen in the latest batchIt happen before, it's going to happen again. Which is a huge turndown point for me. Proton need to address this issue quickly, at least what is the cause and solution. This post has been edited by xshiro: Jun 12 2009, 01:18 PM |

QUOTE(loong2020 @ Jun 12 2009, 03:59 PM) for persona...i dun hear anyone mentioning about iafm problem.... i think la....this is due to good soundproof installed in persona. it may be not very noticable. Blm has less soundproof so it becomes more apparent there are some persona owner reported have changed the iafm. but not many as blm owner. some might not notice it at all This post has been edited by xshiro: Jun 12 2009, 05:25 PM |

yes aurora...just found old an article
QUOTE Currently, Proton’s Campro engine uses an aluminum manifold with a single airflow path. This will be replaced with a reinforced plastic molded manifold with variable airflow activated by flaps controlled by electronics from Bosch, and manufactured by EPMB. The automotive-grade high-thermal plastic material used to make the new manifold is lighter, resulting in overall weight reduction, which will improve fuel consumption slightly. The new intake manifold will substantially improve the efficiency of air intake into the combustion chamber, and better combustion means better response, and increased torque output and smoother power delivery. Lower end power will also be better, since airflow can be optimized for both low and high end engine speeds. Basically, this is a variable intake geometry system, also known as variable length intake manifold. Nothing cutting edge or new in the market, and has been in practice for years - like Porsche’s VarioRam, Mitsubishi’s Cyclone and Mazda’s VICS. But anything that can improve the performance of the Campro engine is welcomed, don’t you think? Another added effect is the ability to create a swirl effect in the intake air for a better air-fuel mix, if the manifold is designed to do so.

EPMB ....is the manufacturer...
i think it was material issue, they opted for plastic rather than aluminium to cut the weight down previous Proton’s Campro engine uses an aluminum manifold with a single airflow path. QUOTE This will be replaced with a reinforced plastic molded manifold with variable airflow activated by flaps controlled by electronics from Bosch, and manufactured by EPMB unlike similar tech like mazda vics which is made from alumunium i think if u like speeding i think u gonna get the problem fast This post has been edited by xshiro: Jun 15 2009, 05:03 PM |
