You've got some work ahead of you.
The best Weapon is "knowledge"..so it's best that you prepare yourself and not just Rip into it without knowing what you are doing.

I did a lot of work to mine after sitting for 3 years . I need to replace the rad and all of the rubber everywhere becouse I got little vacuumed leaks everywhere .
Just flush everything 2 TIMES AT LEAST ! Everything was clogged on mine. And all the rubber is starting to crack.

Just expect to spend 2 grand getting it running right and handling with out problems left and right.

Sound likes you have some work to do. The oil you are asking about is Marvel Mystery Oil it is used when you have carbon lock problems. Some people use ATF but is corrosive to the rubber seals in the engine.

Good Luck getting her up and running.

If it runs smoothly as you say do not put oil in the engine. Change the belts and drive.
