Barry: This question gets asked often so ya might look over all the pages and maybe the archives. Main thing is clean oil and fuel. If you have the valve cover off, squirt lots of oil around the moving parts. I also like some thin oil on top of the pistons but the crankshaft is another story. Too bad there isn't an easy way to pump oil pressure up befor cranking to eliminate DRY AREAS (cam+Crankshaft). Might consider having plugs out to eliminate compression and crank with starter to get oil flowing? Some very costly aircraft engines have electric oil pumps for prestart oil pressure. I'll assume it was running OK last time? Nothing suspect busted? Clutch not stuck to flywheel? Go for it and re-check all after a short run. Good luck. Ralph
