Not sure how much oil you put in cylinders, but you may want to spin the
engine with starter before you install the plugs just to make sure it does not
hydro lock, as well as possible fouling of the plugs it there is oil in
there,,,

Well as a progress report on today i just took my oil
squirter can and kept shooting a squirt of 10-40 oil every hour into the spark
plug holes. About 5 pm I took the socket and breaker bar and gave the crank a
twist. No problem, I was worried after four years it might be stuck, but it
rotated without a whimper. I set no 1 cylinder at TDC and reinstalled
the plugs. Tomorrow morn I will spin the oil pump with my long priming shaft
and a drill, drop in the distributor and fire it up. A little nervous it might
blow or something, since I ashamedly admit I never rotated the motor once in
all the 4 years she has been sitting neglected over in the corner of the shop.
Makes you wonder about the valve springs! At my machinists behest i put in
fresh oil and high zinc additive for the cam. Even though it's not a new cam,
he still thought it would be a good idea . Pretty excited , we've been
having crazy monsoon-like rains here for days, so it's the perfect excuse I
have been looking for to get this baby back on the road. Watch, i will enjoy
it so much, i won't want to sell it. LOL
