Have '67 TR-4A, been in storage for 10 years, last time run was about 5
years.  Will be getting it out this year, need to rebuild the clutch and
brake master (they are dry), rebuild the carbs, check out fuel pump and
clear gas lines.  (last started only run as long as the fuel bowl's had
gas)  Cylinders were oiled frequently thru spark plug holes and turned
over.

Car only has 40,000 miles on OD.

Suggestions as to best way to start it, and run without damage?  Should
we pull the head and do valves, or just go for starting as is?

What does the brain trust of Triumph lovers say????
