JUST WONDERING GUYS HAVENT STARTED THE CAR FOR 37 DAYS, I HAVE DICONNECTED THE BATTERY BEFORE I LEFT...SHOULD I HAVE ANY PROBLEMS STARTING THE CAR?
NOT DRIVING THE CAR FOR A 37 DAYS DOES IT AFFECT THE CARBURATOR?

ANY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD I BE TAKING UPON STARTING IT?

If possible disconnect the High Tension Lead, rotate the engine until the oil pressure light goes out, or positive oil pressure is observed on the gauge, reconnect the HT lead and start engine.
