I have a 31 tudor sedan. Due to some physical issues it has been about 2 and 1/2 years Since anything has been done to it, I would like to get it started back up but was wondering if I should add anything into the cylinders through the spark plug and let it set first since it hasn't had any oil...

I'll check the spark, I had purchased a new upper and lower plate for the dist. with modern points, so I went ahead and put that on. I guess coil could be bad. I already tried gas flow and it looks good, I pulled both filters out of my lines and they are good. ( also used new gas)! thanks

This is a followup to a past post I had with the same problem.My headlights are blowing ( not both at the same time). I have installed a new alternator which during about a 30 minute drive and using a logging meter has an output of max.7.9 volts and min. of 5.6 volts.(measured on headlight...
