Hi Rick:
Here are the instructions that we recommend with our engines. Either
method is fine.
1. Using an external source of mineral oil and pressure, pump oil
through the engine using the oil pressure fitting as the inlet source.
Install a temporary gage at the right hand forward galley plug and pump
oil until the temporary gage reads a stable pressure between 40-100 psi.
Remove the temporary gage, install galley plug and connect engine oil
pressure cockpit gage. Remove one upper sparkplug from each cylinder
and, using the engine starter, motor the engine until the cockpit gage
reads stable. Install sparkplugs and torque to 400-425 in/lbs. Install
leads. Engine is ready to start for LIMITED ground run.
2. If no external source is available, remove upper sparkplugs and
rotate engine through using the propeller until some indication on the
cockpit gage appears. Using the engine starter, motor the engine until
the gage reads 40-100 psi, stable. Observe starter limitations.
Install sparkplugs as above.
Best,
Rhonda

#2 is what Aerosport recommends and what I did.
Took about 6-8 seconds to see an indication.
