    I just had the 30K service completed on my 88 Mondial Cab which has 7 K miles on it. I am wondering if I need to break it in? Any suggestions on what I shold do?
    Thanks

    I don't think you need to do anything differently than before the service.

    A 12K (30K) involves re-shimming the valves but as long as they get a good coat of oil (which they will as it warms up) get out and drive it like it was meant to be driven.

    Belts et al take a set within 5 minutes. I'd warm it up, check the fluids when warmed and then "get on it".
