Yes, no and maybe.
Anything I operate I make d*m certain everything works and without controls sticking or hanging up. Same thing as with aircraft etc. The control functions must be checked.
A couple of snorts on the throttle will show a lot about engine condtion.
Now if that engine had just been fired up and it was being goosed before oil pressure had built and finally pushed oil to the far ends of the oil galleries. Or if the gooseing was done just prior to shut down, particularly if the engine is turbo equiped.
Then feel free to kick your instructor's kyster.
Maybe he's getting over the hill and is gratefull he was able to go out for a rip and a tear like a young lad? You might have made his day?
