Re: Oil priming

["Gary H." <spigot2039@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I thought I saved Don's message but can't find it right now. Anyway, my recall is that he used the oil pressure sensor hole.
That is, he took off the oil filter and the oil pressure sending unit and used gravity to flow new oil into the sending unit hole until the oil emerged out the filter area. Rigged up a rubber line connected to an oil container and let gravity do the work. He called it his intravenous prime method, I think. :)   

Thanks,
Gary H.
