    starting after hibernation

    My inlaws are in town and well, they want to drive my Zinno iC, sweet.
    so, I need to fire-up good old Delphi iC,

    She's been hibernating since last August, new engine and all in warm Socal weather, so, I wonder on how to start her up.

    Should I remove spark plugs, squirt some oil and fully crank her 2 or 3 full revolutions by hand ?
    or is there another way as not to scratch cylinder walls, also will lube cam shaft etc.

    All fluids are good, new battery will be at hand.

    Hopefully she'll be as strong as the Glock I fured today, what a way to bond with the in laws, i was a virgin, a 40+ year old virgin, LOL :)

    yeah do the spark plug lubrication. Also when you start it put the key in and let it sit on the last function for 15 seconds, get all the pumps running.
