My 215cc with ETEC 150 HP now has 40 hours on it and has been burning about 2.2 GPH - which is very good.

There is no 'break in' period per se. The computer chip onboard adds extra oil until around 20 hours of NON IDLE time (as per my dealer). I use about 1 qt oil per 10 hours of running - using the 100 level oil.

At max RPM I hit around 35KPH on the GPS.

A nice cruising speed is 4000RPM which runs about 22KPH.
