2-41a. ENGINE PRE-START PROCEDURE. This procedure should be accomplished prior to engine
restart at any time the engine oil, oil filter and/or oil cooler has been drained or changed, or after an engine
change, engine oil pump change, or prolonged period without oil in the system.
a. Remove the lower set of spark plugs.
b. Ascertain that 12 U.S. quarts of engine oil have been added to the engine sump if the system was
completely drained.
c. Position the mixture control in IDLE CUT-OFF and magneto switches OFF; then crank the
engine over with the starter.
d. Crank the engine for 30 seconds and stop for at least one minute; then repeat this procedure at
least four times until the oil pressure gauge indicates a stabilized pressure reading.
CAUTION
Do not exceed the 30-second cranking period and be sure to allow
at least one minute starter cool down time between each cranking
period.
If no oil pressure is indicated after four cranking periods, it could be due to loss of prime in the
engine oil pump. This condition would be unusual during a normal oil change, but if it occurs follow
instructions given in note below.
NOTE
To make certain the pump is primed, remove the accessory pad
cover on the oil pump and observe the small hole which is vented
to the pump output chamber. Follow steps a thru d and crank the
engine until oil squirts from the hole (normally within five
seconds). Replace the cover plate and continue with steps e and f.
