I have a Hyper .21 that has been sitting for a year after I wrecked my inferno pretty badly. I am ready to install the engine again, but I never ran afterrun through it after the wreck. Of course now when I turn the engine over by hand, it feels like it is turning through syrup!

What is the safest way to get this engine going again?

Thanks!
