Default Re: Rebuilt engine

Here is the easiest way to prime the oil galleys and pump on an 8ba. With the filter out and the cover off put a hose over the center tube and fill the can. The oil will drip back through the pump and galleys. It will take a bit because of the small orfice in the inlet but it will drain down. I never examined anything after to prove this out but figure it must work because the oil went somewhere.
