First start up

Post by T.Hanson »

Almost time to turn the key on the rebuilt engine. I think we hold the air flow meter door open to hear the fuel pump charge the system. As the block has 56,000 miles I oiled, wiped down the cylinders before assembly. O.K. to just go for it, or crank with plugs out, or some other pagan ritual.
