Hi everyone. First a brief intro...

I ordered my 370 and it was shipped to me via container(I am not in the US). It took around 60 days for the container to reach me. I got it with 18 on the odo. However, since it was not started for 60 days I can imagine that all the oil should have settled at the bottom of the engine. Now I can imagine metal against metal scraping when it was first started. Am I correct? Should I change the oil out or will it be fine?

Thanks again!
