Hey Chip,
I think you're wise not to use WOT, but the owner's manual says that it is
good to give the engine some occasional WOT in high gear (i.e. 4th or 5th)
when breaking it in. Evidently, it helps everything seat up properly or
something. Check your manual for the recommended engine break-in procedures.
