Message	Both the Z, and many at work. I fill the oil filter with oil, and fire it up...cranking it at 250rpm imo doesnt build anywhere near enough oil pressure. I've never had an issue with filling filter and firing it up. As long as you've used assembly lube/oil you're fine. You'll see oil pressure gauge go up within 5 seconds
