Agreed, it is a good motor.

I’ve read the manual - it is hogwash. The OLM counts down ~10% per 1000 miles it doesn’t matter if it has 254 idles hours or 74... I also don’t agree that it is on track for usage this time around. It would happily have let me run 10,000mi, 580+hrs with 384+hrs idle.

Me either.
