<x-charset iso-8859-1>change oil (cleaning strainer) adjust valves check all is nice and secure still .drive without labouring the car for 500 miles repeat initial process . drive with occasional bursts of gusto for 1500 miles service and set valves even after this period keep in mind you have only done 2000 miles . now you can get into a servicing routine depending on how you feel i don't do my servicing on miles as i don't do enough . normally i service in the autumn just before winter gets nasty and in the spring again its only 5 litres of oil a year and it wont break the bank! of course if your banging out the miles then chose every 2000 2500 or 3000 miles as you service point as you deem fit. keep in mind oil is cheap your new engine i dare say was not treat it nice make it last. it will not be properly lose till its done about 10,000 miles not labouring around corners and such like is the main thing here if you felt as if you should have just changed down a gear to do a move then you have just been a bad dude to your new engine.
