Just did a BSE on my cousins car due to a spun BS bearing a week ago and did the grease packing method, had oil at the head within seconds, just started it directly.


Thanks for the info Jason. I'll crank it without fuel & fire first before starting her up. Looks like the best option to follow so far. I'll keep everyone posted.

Any recommended oil to use on first 20 miles? i know must not be synthetic so wear can occur smile
