Oil Pump Priming
This priming procedure must
be performed whenever the oil
hose connection between the
oil tank and pump inlet has
been disconnected.
1. Clamp or pinch off the vent
line approximately two
inches (5 cm) from the oil
tank, between the end of
the oil tank vent fitting and
the vent line's pressure
relief slit.
2. Run the engine for 10-20
seconds.
3. Remove the vent line
clamp. If the line is bled
properly, you should hear a
rush of air, indicating that
the line is properly primed
and ready for operation. If
you do not hear air, the
line has not bled, and
you'll need to repeat the
priming procedure.
