Preparation for Starting Rebuilt Engine

If it has been sitting for that long, I would pull the plugs and use the starter to prime the system. Pulling the plugs will take the compression load off the bearings while you spin the motor. Once you see the oil light tun off, put the plugs in and see if it will run.
