Hi all, I`m about to fire up a newly overhualed 582 w/oil injection. With

everything set up PER rotax sevice manual, when I crank the engine with the

electric starter, but with no gas available, shouldn`t I get some oil

movement in the lines between the oil injector & the engine crankcase where

the oil line attaches to engine?  I`m hesitant to put gas in & run the

engine with no visible oil movement while cranking at different throttle

settings. Everything else ablout the installation looks great & "by the

book".  Thanks,   Jim Kmet

If in doubt mix some oil in the gas...  at the proper ratio...   then after
	


20 to 30 min look at the level in the oil res,,,,  if it has not moved go

back to the drawing board,,,  if it has gone down drain the premix, check

the plugs and filer up.    The oil feeds slow enough you may not see it move

with only the electric starter.   Somewhere I remember that doubling the oil

for the first tank  is good for the break in period...

If you run it at part throttle with premix AND also pull the oil pump cable 

to max, you can see the air bubbles pulsing through the oil line as the pump 

sucks them out.

Thanks, I ran it for a few min today with the premix, didn`t have time to 

run it very long, just enough to bring up temps, & the oil has started to 

fill the lines, evrything looks like it will be OK, thanks to everyone for 

the help.     Also, Richard, how far away from TRI are you & your plane? I`m 

in there about Once a month lately, thought I might give you a call. I`m at 

SRB
