See Alex's 603 filter change, cranking forever thread. Get it
running first. warm it up. change oil. start it up. run it a few
days unless fuel filters are plugged. then change one thing at a
time, and run it in between. Gives you a chance to learn the car and
its quirks before introducing a lot of variables. Changing one fluid
at a time minimizes variables if something goes wrong.
So, balancer disc is installed, and vibration damper and pullys back in
place. In the process of installing new belts I ran out of daylight. I
am anticipating being ready to try to start the engine tomorrow.
This will be the first time the engine has been running in probably a
year or more. I have all new filters, will obviously install new air
filter but should I change oil and fuel filters before or after
starting, or does it really matter?
I do plan to change the oil but was thinking to warm it up a bit to get
a better drain.
Coolant is evil green stuff but at least it looks reasonably clean and
fresh. That'll be coming out as well.
