[QUOTE="Jody Treadway, post: 733613, member: 8210"] I recently flopped my 5.0 (302) on both sides at different times, same trip. When on the driver's side, no issues at all. Bumped starter and had no resistance to start. Cranked back up and life was good. Next flop was on pass side and when laid over, oil tracked out of the valve cover and into the intake tube via a CCV hose. Bumped it over same way very conservatively and had no issues aside from smoking like crazy as the oil in the intake tube made it's way past the throttle body. Let it low idle for 10 minutes or so until it cleared up. I have found the starter will let you know right away if there is too much to crank over. If in doubt, pull plugs, disable ignition and crank away [/QUOTE]
