Re: Engine - not run in long time
Hello,<br /><br />Besides changing all your oils and checking all the wiring, plugs, cap rotor, etc. go to one of the better auto shops in your area and see if they can get you a tool which will prime the oil pump. <br /><br />The tool will go in where the distributor is currently, hook up to an electric drill motor and spin the oil pump and build oil pressure in your engine. <br /><br />If this isn't possible - pull your spark plugs out - disable or shut off your fuel supply and let the engine spin using the starter. Pulling the plugs will at least eliminate the compression and allow the engine to turn freely. (Be sure to use water muffs)<br /><br />Either way, you must build up oil pressure into the lifters - push rods and rocker arms in order to not have the engine seize.<br /><br />Hope this helps,<br /><br /><br /><br />------------------<br />Hope this helps!<br /><br />Tom Pickens<br />I'm building my ebusiness by helping others retire debt, reduce taxes and build an ebusiness of their own.
