Should I lube the cylinders before running?

I am planning on running a seadoo that has been sitting for a year this weekend. Should I put any mixing oil or wd40 in the cylinders before I run it?
 
If you've spun the engine already... it won't make a difference. If there was rust on the cyl walls... it's already gone.

Pesonally... I'd add oil to the fuel, just to make sure the injection pump is working. You may foul a set of plugs... but it could save your engine if there is a problem. (50:1 mix) That's what I did to the 90 Si I just resurrected.
 
Yeah I have spun the engine already. What oil would you use? When I had my SPI I used Pro Honda Premix oil.
