*********** Ignition????... Pre-Oil sitting Viper, MORE help Please....

[dunce]

More pre-lube

How do I kill the ignition power??? I am going to remove plugs, Spray WD4O or fogger and spin with starter to prime. Plugs out, so much less pressure on main and rod bearings. And prior to that add a quart or two of oil at a high rate to flood the area around "all" the pushrods as to dripple some fresh oil on the cam along each pushrod.

How do you kill the Vipers ignition??

Thanks,
mark

Mark- You are waaaaaay too worried about starting your car after sitting for 8 months. You are not going to damage the engine. Start your Viper and begin enjoying it. Serious car collectors do not pre oil the engine between long storage (ok, maybe some real anal ones do), the majority make sure they start their cars every once and a while, give a short drive, and keep the battery charged. 8 months is a very short time.......


Wait,,,,,,,,,,
Listen,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, can you hear that???

Go have fun and stop worrying.

Man dunce, Yellow is WAY right!!! I own a car storage business and have cars in non- heated storage for months going on years. Over 26 yrs now no problem on start it up. Just make sure oil pressure is up soon. Also you could crank and stop a few times till oil is up. Don't be concerned!!! The fogging and all that is done before it's stored.

Buy an accusump system. That way, you can pre-oil the car every time before you start it.
