Default Re: Starting procedures for stored camaro......

Fresh Oil & filter - pull plugs squirt oil in the cyl. I also squirt some of the oil down the accelerator pump shaft to lube it just in case it dried up. Try to not use the gas in the tank if you can. If you do then be very sure that you have a paper inline filter in the gas line before the fuel pump.

I use a 5 gal fuel tank that I can set on the fender or next to the car up high so that it feeds clean gas to the carb. The reason I use the aux gas tank is because of rust in the gas tank and that can be a huge problem with a car that was setting for a long time. Usually the fuel pump will not work or will leak. Then crank the motor through for a while till you see oil pressure on the gauges. Reinstall the plugs and give it a try. After it is running then you can tend to the water system. Just don't let it set and run with out watching for signs that it is overheating.

Just remember -above all be sure to have a fully charged fire ext. handy.
