With the TR's, you can pre-oil the engine by removing the distrubutor, and
using a drill the drive the distributor/oil pump shaft, thus forcing oil
into the galleries.  Also, you can remove the spark plugs, thus relieving
compression, and starting (duh...) and crank.  Unless the bearings are
TOTALLY dry, or the engine has been frozen, this works OK.
