[Roadsters] Oil Pump Primer

[Keith0alan at aol.com]

Hello all,
 
    I have used the screw driver blade in the electric  drill turning 
backwards method with good success. Yes you do need to remove  the drive gear 
that engages the cam/jackshaft. Getting it realigned is a pain  but possible 
involving turning the oil pump a little, installing the gear,  removing the 
gear, turning the pump a little, installing the gear, removing the  gear, ad 
nauseam. For fun you can add a little moving the crank shaft back and  forth 
but I don't think it helps much.
