<VV> Prime engine ?

[Shelrockbored at aol.com]

I would prime it before hand as Matt describes.  The engine has not  run in 
six years so you need to pump oil to engine surfaces before attempting to  
start it.

My  question is should I prime it (to build up oil pressure) via the oil 
pump or  
will simply turning it over via the starter be enough to get the oil  
pressure to 
the proper level without any stress on moving  parts.
