I had to leave to korea a year ago and am now heading back to pick up my car. I had the fluids changed before i left but am wondering what to do when i get back. It has been sitting in a storage garage for a year and not turned over once. I heard i should pour some oil into the engine before starting. I left it almost on empty as far as gas goes. Any ifo would be appreciated as i am a little concerned.

It should be ok, pouring oil in the engine wont help too much, I would just prime the engine on the first start. To do this, just floor the gas pedal, before starting, and keep iot floored. This tells the computer not to start the engine. And it will just sit there and turn over, allowing the engine to build a little oil pressure before starting, then just release the gas pedal, and it should fire right up. Good luck,Jordan<br />15.09@90.7<br /><a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com/forums/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=21\" target=\"_blank\"><b>1995 Camaro 3.4 M5</b></a>
