Oil pump priming
Alright getting close to starting up my second 5.3. The both engines are from 2007's new body style with AFM. Now this engine has sat on a stand for 3 years.. I would assume that I would need to prime the oil pump like I would on an old sbc? Usually I would have just pulled the dist and put a long common screwdriver down and prime it that way, but with the newer engine obviously doesn't have a dist.. what have you guys done to your engines after they have sat for 3+ years on a stand? obviously don't want to fire it up without seeing oil Px within the first 10 seconds.. suggestions?
