Pull the plugs and oil the cylinders.
Take a wrench to the crank and turn it through at least two revolutions. If you don't insure the engine is free you could damage something if it is stuck. Ask me how I know how I got bent pushrods on mine. The starter has adequate torque to damage parts if they don't want to play well with others.
Find #1 TDC and pulll the dist and run the oil pump.
Then spin it with the starter while the plugs are out.
TDC again and reinstall the distributor.
The above is what I should have done. Not too bad after all as I found other problems that required a rebuild.
This was on an engine that had been running two years prior to this and stored indoors.
