Ok as some of you may have read my tragedy thread here is a question.


If a engine has been sitting, started onely once or twice every 6 months what things do I need to worry about if I want to take that engine and put it in another car and drive it.... What prep's should I do, what should I watch for?

thx

1. change the oil and filter

2. Crank it without ignition until oil pressure comes up.
