What are the procedures if any after replacing a cylinder head in a 2001 Kia Rio. After I finish attaching all the hoses, electrical connections, etc. and aligning the timing belt sprockets and crankshaft sprocket, refilling the fluids, do I just try starting it as usual or are there procedures to follow first. Some sort of relearn procedures? Fuel pump restart? Relearn for any camshaft sensor that controls injectors? Nothing in any CD manual. No Chilton or Haynes manual for Kia? Thanks for any answer.

Just start it. After allowing it to run for a few minutes, check to make sure the fluids didn't drop.
