engine not started 12 months

[Guest Aj-rb20]

Hi can anyone give me some advise on getting an engine that has not run for a while going again.

I was thinking to

change oil and filter then start it for 10 mins and do the same again

Should I run an engine flush thru it? or get it carbon cleaned or something?

The motor had a new turbo 14 months ago. should I pull it of and service it?

Thanks

empty your fuel tank, change spark plugs, fuel filter, engine oil, coolant, basically go over the whole car.

put the fuel is important. i emptied my fuel tank out after 14 months and it was dirtyas.

AS ABOVE!

Very important to flush the fuel as well. Fuel goes off over time and looses octane.

Thanks I was forgeting the fuel side of things

There is definatly no fuel in the thing

Do I have to pull the tank out to properly clean it?

if you have time why not..

The Fuel is the most Important thing..I have had a gtr r33 sitting in our work for atleast 6 months and The motor will build up residue that can cause internal problems...Make sure you get your Oil lines and Fuel lines Cleaned then Bled so there are no blockages...

Once the car is driving again drive it easy for about 100kms so the motor cleans out all the old shit...Then it should be Ok the Thrash it

If you havnt been turning it over i would take out plugs and poor some warm oil down the pots and turn over by hand a few times
