Default about to swap, procedures and tips

hey all, well... the time has come to pull out that janky lawnmower motor for a bigger, beefier lawnmower motor...

so, as it is with many of us, we purchased a "low mileage jdm motor" when in reality we really dont know its history. our motor probably has been sitting in a warehouse for years at a time.....so to make a long story short....

how should i go about cranking the motor for the first time? should i try it without fuel/spark just to crank?

cause i know when i did my first swap, i had to crank that thing a million times, and hold the gas for quite some time

any tips on actually starting her up for the first time in how many years?
