Darren. there are a lot of things to check before you start the truck. i feel the most important is ti prelube the enginr. You ca do this by removing the disy and rotating the oil pump with a screwdriver untill you get oilpressure. A better way is to use the oilpump that screws to the top of a 20 ltr drum, renove the oilpressure line and connect the pump to that port. these pumps will produce about 100 psi on a good engine. have someone work the p;ump when you do te first start,
i have always used this system since about 1970 on rebuilt or long stored engines. will try and catch up with you at corowa.
