Engine oil priming
Not that the car gods will let me get to this point very soon it seems, but this has been eating at me for a while. My motor has been sitting on a stand in the garage for about 11 months now with the oil drained. I shouldn't be much more than a couple weeks from putting her in now but I am worried about starting it after sitting so long. Is there a method of priming the oil system out there and/or am I just being paranoid again? Thanks.

Before you connect any fuel lines and after you fill the tank with oil, pull the fuel pump relay and run the starter. It won't take long to develop oil pressure.
