Pretty sure it's just a matter of filling the oil filter with oil, pour some down the hole after youve taken the pipe off the block that goes to the oil filter housing (top left of the block) then turn the engine backwards, or roll it backwards on the floor in 3rd. Then crank it over and try for oil pressure i believe! On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

Prime the oil pump and filter, take the plugs out then crank it over until there is pressure. It can take a good minute or so to get oil pressure if all the galleries are empty. Edited by matty on 23rd Dec, 2011. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel
