DanielC Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 This is how to prime the oil system on a L-engine. Remove the gear from an oil oil pump/ distributor drive spindle. Take most of the guts out of an old distributor. Put the oil pump drive, without the gear in the engine, with the oil pump. Put the gutted distributor on the engine. Put a reversible drill on the distributor shaft. Run the drill backwards. You should get oil pressure. Quote Link to comment
