First starting a garaged car
Before I start my garaged car, which has been garaged for over 9 months, is there anything in particular I should do about the engine? I read somewhere that someone suggested pouring some engine oil into it to avoid a dry start. Any ideas aside from obvious battery issues?

Remove the fuel pump relay/fuse and crank for a while to get the oil primed.
