I can tell you what not to do !! A friend of mine suggested that I spray a little WD-40 into each cylinder prior to startup. Worked OK until the third cylinder and then the little red straw flew off and down into the cylinder. It actually caused more worry than anything. Consulted a couple of mechanics (because I tried and tried to fish it out with no luck) and they said start it up and within 5 seconds it will be gone. Sure enough that was last year, drove it a whole summer with no ill effects.

Like they say "Live and Learn"
