Proper handling of the 8
 
So I'll probably be burnd in hell for writing this :flamed: , but I did search here and Google'd it and no luck. Possibly because I used the word "handling" but whatever. Where can I find the info I need to bring up to speed as to what all I need to know about operating my soon to have 8? I've read a couple of things and remember seeing a website devoted to breaking in the 8, but I'm getting it with 4033 miles on it. I assume it's already broken in. Things like idle'ing, revving before you shut it off, stuff like that. I know the usual stuff like "put gas in it" "wash it every now and then" "remove any and all bananas from tailpipe" Hopefully someone can help me out with a link or something. Thanks.

never put bananas in the exhaust

potatoes are the only plant matter that should ever be placed in the exhaust

Yeah, I've used potatoes in the past, they seemed to work quite well actually. Especially if your little brother is standing right behind the car and you rev it up and the potatoe flies out and hits him in the nuts. Man, we were laughing for hours. Well, I was laughing, he was crying.
