I pretty much beat the crap out of mine. 3 years old. 62,441 miles.

The avatar picture you see above isn't showing the whole story. Watch the short video in my signature, (link is there). And there is more, here. (I will be editing down all of the footage from this weekend at some point this winter.)

That happened this past July; about 10,000 miles ago.

I am definitely field testing this product and it passes muster everytime.

Just remember fresh clean oil, antifreeze and air are the life blood of the engine. You can wear out the engine very quickly if you run any one of the three dirty for very long.
