[img]cid:image001.gif(at)01C87EAB.7F5B33D0[/img]    

I have a pressure pot and need to pre-pressurize the oil system on a Lycoming IO540 (no, this isn’t in my RV-6).  My question is where is the best place to connect the hose from the pressure pot to make sure we get oiling throughout the engine and not just dumped into the pan.  I was thinking the oil pressure gage port but not sure what gets bypassed.  The repair was a top overhaul only so oiling the bottom wouldn’t be as necessary, but I suspect that is the end of the oil chain anyway.  

   

Thanks  

Tim

Linn, did you have an idea to add to this?  Your posts came up empty twice.

 Don't know what's going on!!! That's the first time it's happened to me!!!

 

 On the front of the engine you'll find two (one each side) 1/4" plugs with an allen wrench hole.  Adapt from the pressure pot and hook it in there.

I don't know why this happens, but every once in a while some  

messages appear empty.  But, there is often content that can be seen  

if you can select an option in your mail program to view raw source.   

On Safari on OS X, you go to the View menu, select Message -> Raw  

Source.  Both Linn's messages had content if you did that.
