Shutter Island, by Dennis Lehane

Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane
Harper Collins ISBN 978-0-06-170325-6

pg 210
Teddy and Chuck watched ...rock a jeep off its side. When they tried the ignition, it started on the fifth try, and they roared (away).

I think if you started any internal combustion engine that had laid on its side for more than a couple hours, you'd have a real danger of the engine seizing up (because the oil would drain out), if you could get it started at all.
