Ok thanks for that. I got told not to let it idle when I first start it upbecause it does something to the lobes is that right?

yes and no mate depends on ya spring pressure....ya can let it idol but best to just sit it on 2000-2200 for 15-20min but in saying that ive tried not running one in at all i just fitted it and drove as per normal and never had a drama, so it just luck of the draw i guess
