Howdy groovers,
In anticipation of resurrecting the P6B which has been in the shed for 15? 20? years I've been doing some reading. Regarding the crank rope seals - what do you think the best way to ease these back into life are? Cranking the engine up to correct oil pressure (with dizzy disconnected) by way of the starter motor is part of my thought process, but will sustained cranking on the starter burn it out? How long do you think I'd have to let it crank this way for (fresh) oil permeate the seals?
