All, I know there is some dick dance to crank the car by using the brake and gas pedals, but Ive never done it and am not sure what the procedure is called. I know Ihave to crank, but not start the motor to ensure the turbo has oil..... Please help!
Thanks, that worked. I did it 3 times and let the starter rest a bit. After that, she fired right up, no boost nor exhaust leaks so far, and she goes like a scalded ape. I’m pushing too much boost on the base map, so I’ll triple check I’ve got the correct map loaded, and take her easy for a bit.
Doesn't need to occur as the System still has residual oil from the previous OC and the Turbo is already adequately lubricated and no longer Dry. Plus we are liquid cooled Turbos so no need to worry about coking the Turdbo.
I do it to build pressure/circulate fresh oil for the WHOLE SYSTEM before starting, (bearings, mains, etc., etc.) NOT solely for the snail's sake.
I even did this on my naturally aspirated LS1 after oil changes.
Ummmm so im priming the shirt out of the oil system and I'm not getting any oil from the feed line.... Wtf is going on.
I got a crank time exceeded error but still have no oil.
There's fresh oil in the pan... Before anyone gets wise
