up to you, you can just start it with fresh oil or just turn it over a few times by hand / start it without coilpacks plugged in for a few turns, then start as normali had my s16 engine out of the car for about 6 months and did the above before running it first time ________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |

Refill fluids and do a belt change. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Squirt a little oil down each bore after you remove the pulgs and before you spin it over, even duck oil or WD40 helps, just don't flood it with the stuff, a one second burst from an aerosol is good enough.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.
