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 the vent line 5 cm from

the oil tank, between the end of
the oil tank vent fitting and the
vent line's pressure relief slit.

2. Start the engine. Allow it to idle

for 10-20 seconds.

3. Remove the vent line clamp. If the line is bled properly, you should

hear a rush of air. If you do not hear a rush of air, repeat the priming
procedure.
