It was strange. I had a pan full of oil, but no matter how much I 
cranked the engine, oil wouldn't circulate. I had to put oil in the 
tops of the cylinders to lube it and that wasn't enough.

The manual says to prime the pump if you remove it. I didn't remove 
it but it became air-bound anyway. I filled the filter totally full 
with oil and screwed it on. The oil ran down into the pump and 
suddenly I had great oil pressure. The engine spun faster, better 
compression, easy starting.

That's about it.
