09 Stella Am I Over Revvin' It ?
Have about 170 miles on it. Last two times out I took it to about 37 (indicated) in 3rd gear and the engine really seemed to smooth out. Does this rpm (whatever it is) seem too much for my low mileage ? I know I have a 4th gear.

I followed the guidelines pretty well for the first 500, then I began to open it up. I would say 37 in third is as fast as you can get it and I rarely get it that high, unless I am on a hill or in an interesting situation. I dont hesitate to rev it to 35 when I need to, but I like to get it shifted so I dont wear out the thing.
So, I would dial it back a bit, til you hit 5-600 miles. Then let 'er rip.
