I recently purchased a 96 ZZ3 in the crate that has never been started. I looking for some advice on what I should do to it before I fire it up. I'm sure any lubrication is gummed up in it. What say you?

If it has been in a warehouse that is heated it should be okay. If it has been sitting in someones garage for 8 years you might want to pull the heads off of it. You could bore scope the cylinder through plug holes and see how they look as they are the first thing to go in storage. If they are good, everything else should be too.
