Listers - Stock 948 A series engine: bores honed, new rings in, head back on, 
almost ready to reinstall.  First question:  I would like to use a bilge pump 
to hand pump oil throughout the engine oil routes while the pan is still off to 
make sure everything is lubricated as well as possible before I start it up.  
What is the best way to do this?  Second question:  What is the proper break-in 
procedure to properly set the rings?  A friend says to start the engine cold, 
take it to 2000 rpm right away and let it run there for 20-30 minutes, but I 
trust you guys over him any day.  What is the best way to break it in?  By the 
way, I have never tried spotted dick, christmas pudding, triffle, or even fish 
and chips, and I dislike pickled onions and mince pie.  But I'll give the UK 
credit for one delicacy - stout.  Give me a pint (or two or three) of Guinness 
any day (Newcastle in a pinch).  Doug    ....o~'o
