Hi Guys

When one receives an engine with 'long term storage', are there any 
maintenance items to do, prior to fitting/running

I think the requirements are covered in a service letter. Look on the 
Lycoming web site or call them. It has been a long time, circa 2004.

I had a engine that had been stored for 20 years
I heated up 8 quarts of oil and used a pressure pot to pump hot oil through t
he input from the oil cooler to flood  the bearings and oil galleys. 575 hou
rs and going strong
