Jamesc Hypersonic April 12, 2017 Share April 12, 2017 actually my regular workshop has been using this method for as long as I can remember They usually pour maybe 80-90% 1st round then finish up after letting engine run a while 80 - 90% is ok but not half. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrianli Hypersonic April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 oh. any specific reasons? always learning something new everyday Becos when you pour the oil initially, it does not go to various parts of the engine. After the engine started, its engine driven pump will deliver the oil to various parts of the engine, thus there will be drop in level in the oil sump. So after running the engine, need to top up to maximum level on the dip stick. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
