Chris: Owen has given a very good account of the steps for waking your sleeping Packard.

Another thing that I would do is drain the old coolant, and try flushing the block, then add new coolant.

When trying to start your Packard I would have another person on hand keeping an eye on the engine compartment. That person doing the watching have a fire extinguisher close by.

In closing I almost forgot to say a BIG WELCOME to best Packard destination on the web.
