Pre-oiling?

Post by Mike Langlois »

Greetings All, Just about to finish up a fairly major rehab on my 2002 V70. Does anyone know of a way to pre-oil the moto,r prior to start up (besides killing the ignition and turning over the motor)? On my old Ford V8, I just pulled out the distributor and dropped a shaft into the oil pump, then hooked it up to a drill. Since the oil pump is sort of integral to the crankshaft, this option is not available on the V70.

Pull the fuel pump relay and crank it for three sessions of 10 seconds , then let the Dragon breathe fire.

Messy, but put motor oil in the filter housing to speed up oil pressure.
