Walt.. are ya having a bad day and just needed someone to punch? or is there
another reason you are being so disagreeable?  It's seems pretty obvious
that the 'checking out; seems to have been done by quite a few people here
who also like to prime the pump in a machine that has sat for a while...
doesn't appear to be an isolated event based on the replies I see.

oil

It's your perogative to work on and treat your machines as you see fit.  I
think that what people here are having the hardest time with is you
criticizing everybody for what they do with their machines... right?

I think the consensus is to prime the pump BEFORE use.. if the unit has set
a while.  In doing that.. you are priming it before you have started the
engine .. In other words.. you have no idea what the oil pressure at start
is going to be. I can't see how priming the pump hurts anything.  If in the
end, you find that it does loose it's prime on successive starts.. then
sure.. you have to fix it.
