Pour about a tablespoon of motor oil in each cylinder and put the plugs
back in. Helps to lube a block that has been sitting awhile.

You will want a cleaner that leaves a small amount of lube behind after
it cleans. Pros: Cuts future oxidation, Cons: Tends to accumulate grit
and grime, over time. Best heard of so far?: Stabilant-22 (Gotta buy
some so I can try it personally). It's not a cleaner but it's more like 
a contact enhancer.

Injecter O-Rings, just get new ones. 
Basic Tune Up Stuff like filters and cap n' rotor.
Electrical Ground Straps in the Engine Bay; augment, up rate.
Motor Mounts
All Rubber Valve Cover Gasket w/ new studs. Reusable, non leaking.
