Rotating the wrong way (more than about half a prop turn) will pump the oil

backwards into the oil tank, while drawing air from the crankcase into the

oil pump.  This causes the oil pump to lose prime.  Then it is possible for

the engine to run without oil pressure which can damage the engine.



There are procedures that Rotax published to prime the oil pump every time

you change the oil.
