Today seems like a good day to pull my celi out of the garage I havent started it in 3 or 4 weeks, is there anything I should do before i try cranking her?
Also while am here, I was just doing some maintenance work prior to getting a tune: -spark plugs -dizzy cap and rotor arm -changed oil -flushed and replaced coolant -Vacuum lines -Cleaned all grounds -degunked intercooler Anything else i should adress before visiting the tunner? -------------------- QUOTE(tufy @ Jul 19, 2006 - 7:40 AM) [snapback]458074[/snapback] i dont drive fast, i just fly low |

you shouldnt crank the engine for more than 15s at a time as it can overheat the starter and circuitry. i would do 2 or 3 10s intervals and you should be good to go.
