[DMCForum] Re: Crag go FAST!!!! Varoooooooooooooooom!!!!!



Usually air in oil galleries is quickly ejected out top of heads. Can
delay lifters for a second or two (not an issue on your car I know),
but that's about it. Older domestics prime themselves every time you
start car.

My R30 has a check valve south of filter to keep oil in, but ran
engine 2000 miles with it removed no problem (was afraid I had
introduced trash around pressure sending unit). Included Thanksgiving
trip to DC burning straight 30 weight in 28 degree temps.

Filling oil filter isn't going to hurt anything (makes heck of a mess
though, eh?), but don't think that was problem. Doesn't prime pump --
6-9 inches of air back to it. And don't forget all that air rest of
the way through engine. Filling filter just gets oil to metal bits faster.

Pouring a bunch of oil directly into cylinders is going to foul your
plugs terribly. Doesn't take much residue to stop spark. And once a
plug is fouled, unburned crap in cylinder just builds up like a
rolling stone gathering moss. What do electrodes on those therrible
Champions look like anyway?
