04 S six speed
After I got all the liquids into to her and the battery charged up I couldn't wait for morning I had to TURN THE KEY!
Yesssssssss, she's beating and breathing again!!! Damn they sound good.

With the fuel pump fuse removed I cranked the engine 4 times (build up oil pressure) then replaced the fused, cranked her for real and away she went. I only ran her for about 3-5 minutes.

So what advice do you have for starting and running this engine that has just been rebuilt and only run for 3 - 5 min. . I still need to burp the coolant and bleed the steering.
