hi all

I has the cylinder heads replaced and was told to run it in, do I actually need to run it in properly and if so what would you all recommend the best way of doing so?

Thanks

By taking a good fast run at the person who advised you that cylinder heads needed 'running in'... :roll:

Hard and fast in every gear. Pied a plancher as they say in France. Wakes em up.

today I was cruising along at 60mph and I thought I wonder how quick it will pickup speed... wow! they don't half shift! no drone "what are you doing to me?" just eager "yay! lets go captain!"

What, exactly, have you had replaced, and was it with new or used parts?

I must be missing something - or is the 2CV's completely different to every other internal combustion engine (don't answer...) - but shouldn't he be takin' it a bit easy for a few 100 miles at least?
