Okay, tomorrow I should be able to finalize the install of my engine. As I assembled the engine I used pre lube as much as possible. My question is this...What is the best way to pre oil the engine ?? I left the turbo line off til last minute so i can dump oil in there and spin the turbo, but i have no idea what the best approach for the rest of the engine since you can't prime like a gas engine.



Thanks, Dan

 

my suggestion would be to disable fuel system, crank engine until oil pressure is up.
but don't crank too long or the starter motor will get over heated.
it shouldn't take very long

 

If you lubed bearings and all other assembled components, filled oil filter, and put oil in pan, you will be fine.
