yeah for sure, but id turned the wheel manually first to check for any feedback. then put a wee bit oil down into the cylinders. then turned her over to build oil pressure and listened for any danger signs. then went for it and with a poof of smoke she rumbled back into life.she ran really rough. but i thought it would be the ECU just recalculating everything. turned her off and on again and all is sweet. just had her up too operating temp for a wee bit, checking for leaks and what not. all is good
