20 hour initial service
#1
question for y'all-
Is it better to do the first service at the 20 hours or the 100 miles? My owners manual says "whichever comes first, 100 miles or 20 hours" I will rack up 100 miles very quickly, i just put 30 on tonight in a little less than 2 hours (no i wasnt beating the crap out of it either, i kept my speed under 40mph)
I'm just wondering if any dealers have said anything about this to any of you. what should i do? I have the oil and filter already. I just dont want to do it before i need to, but i dont want to wait too long either.

I change my oil and filter after 1 hr., to get the metal shavings out. For break-in, I stick with a petroleum oil. I change it again at 10 hrs. At 20 hrs. I change it again and switch to a synthetic oil (Maxima Extra or Ultra) and do a valve adjustment.
