Do not pour liquids down that intake. Unlike a TBI or carbureted engine it is not designed to flow air fuel mix.

I would not recommend cranking the engine over without the spark plug wires connected to the spark plugs or at least grounded out.

The oil pump is driven from the crankshaft directly on that engine. No easy way to turn it without rotating the crank...

If it were me, I would remove the oil filter, put a piece of hose several feet long into the supply side port and a small funnel into the other end. Then you can hold the funnel above the engine and slowly pour some oil in to prefill/prime the pump. Put the drain plug in, refill the oil, prefill the oil filter, pull the fuel pump relay out and with a fully charged battery crank it for about 15 seconds. Wait for about 30 seconds and repeat this cycle several times. After several cycles the oil pump should have primed enough to turn off the light and briefly register some pressure on the gauge when you stop cranking...

As for the fuel system, I have would add a full can of berryman's B12 chem tool to a 5 gallon can of fresh premium fuel and add that to whatever is in the tank prior to attempting to start it.

Reinsert the fuel pump relay, cycle the key switch on and off waiting 5 to 10 seconds each way, and then attempt to start it up.

My personal approach, your mileage may vary...

Carl

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
