We just purchased a '89 Supra comp ts6m boat. It has a 351 Cleveland in it with a holley. It is obviously marinized. The engine has not been run in 4 years or so. I understand the engine is marinized and so is different, but since it is still a similar block ect. and everyone on this site is absolutely so knowledgeable I thought I would ask for any suggestions on things to do to make sure we get her running well. Thank you for your insight. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen.gif[/img]

 

Get an oilpump drive adapter to run the oilpump with an electric drill for a couple minutes. I'd take a valve cover off and pump at least until you see oil coming out at the rockers. I think you have to run the drill in reverse, but not positive. Other than that and priming the carb, I don't know what else to do. The holly might not be in great shape if it was left with fuel in the carb, but you never know.

good luck.
