Bring 67 250 back to life - need advise - 01/18/09 04:43 PM
Hello,
I am restoring a 67 chevy truck with 250 6cyl. I plan on keeping the inline 6. Need some advise on gettng it running again. Here is the background. Truck was given to me by my father-in-law, from talking to him it has not ran in over 10 years. He did keep a battery on the truck and would turn it over to keep it from freezing up. I have the motor pulled out of the truck now and it will turn over by hand. The engine has 83k acual miles.
What procedure should I follow to make sure I do not damage anything when I try to start it for the first time?
Thanks
Keith L.
