5 Years?

Do you mean literally 5 years without a "Start"?

EDIT: with leathermangs kind suggestions.


1.Take the injectors out and squirt some "KROIL" into each
prechamber (4 ounces each)let the engine "SIT" 48 hrs.
Then try to turn the engine by HAND.'Socket and Driver on the Crankshaft[Gently]
If successful,use starter to spin engine ten revolutions to blow out "Kroil" ...WITH THE INJECTORS OUT OF ENGINE.
(You might place a cloth over the injector holes to deal with the expellent)
1b.Reinstall Injectors with new heat shields.
1c.Test the Glow System.
2.Change all the fluids+Filters.(Oil,Tranny,power steering,brake,coolant)
2a.think about a NEW hand primer pump.
3.'Prime it ,GLOW,and see if SHE'LL AutoRotate.

Oh Yeah, Use the Mark One to inspect all the coolant hoses.
And the suspension.Adjust the Valves,(+All the usual Diesel Stuff)
