Message	Guys, I have tired all the methods on the Z forums and I cannot for the life of me get this thing primed.. I've done the following: - vac shop method with no plugs - cranked the engine over plenty of times with no avail - the engine fired up just fine, I only let it run for 10 seconds and I did not register any oil pressure readings and no oil flowing through the oil cap. - I'm running out of ideas, anyone have any other tips that can get this thing primed? and yes, oil a new pick up tube O-ring was installed..

Here's how it's done. - OverZealous (CT) 22:40:41 11/03/15 I disassemble the oil pump on a new build - aliaZ 12:55:57 11/07/15 Wow! Excellent!! Why didn't I think of that?
