[Roadsters] Fw: Re: bolt dropped in engine

[Gary and Cindy Ault]

A bath towel over the whole thing should suffice, if you're really concerned 
about FM exclusion.

The rebuild shop which did my U20 has a tank which they fill with oil, 
connect to the motor (the oil pressure sensor opening, in the case of a 
U20), and use air pressure to bring up oil pressure before the engine is 
cranked.
