Okay, I'm getting really close to firing up the engine in my
84 however, I'm worried that the engine has been sitting too
long.
It's been roughly 9 years since this engine has been
started. Is there anything I need to worry about? If it
doesn't start, where should I look first?

Thanks!

 

Lubricate the engine and spin it over by hand before doing anything. I would even allow it to sit with Marvel Mystery Oil or something similar before touching the key. Refresh the oil and change the filter.

 

Hmm, so how do I do that exactly? What is the easiest way to lubricate the engine? What is the easiest way to turn the engine? Sorry, I've never done this before.
