sitting motor help
Hey guys,
Have a 13b-rew that came in the roller I purchased, the previous owner was not sure if it needed a rebuild or not, just said that it smoked like crazy. My question is the car has been sitting for 10+ years and the fluids have not been drained. I know there is a possibility of the coolant possibly causing come corrosion. My question is should I even bother trying to start it up or just go straight for a rebuild? If its ok to start up are there any specific steps I should take to prep the motor for startup? I have drained the fluids and they still look pretty clean if that helps any. Id appreciate any input
