Wow. I am not going to point at any single post, but WOW. The difference of opinion here is significant.
this one might make it up into the league of spark plugs, oil, and 6 vs 12 volts.
One thing it looks like everyone agrees on. assembly lube. From my perspective, priming the oil pump is a good thing. If we go into how to prime the pump, then the opinions start to go in different directions. I turn the engine over with the starter as stated to prime the pump and get oil moving through the journels. this fills the crank oil galleries, and get oil through the block. Then I start it right away. Not looking for anyone to agree, just thought I would share what I do and that it works for me.
So, summary. Use assembly lube and prime your pump. Your milage may vary................. :roll:
