Engine prelube

Needed to thing abut pre lube  the engine as the alternator has t come off anyway to acess the last bit of the loom on that side .
Opted for a fuel priming nozzle as an experiment ( Steve's idea)
undid the bleed plug
Bleed plug behind alternator


the wrapped some tape round the outlet to get a good seal


and then pumped and hoped for the best ?
What a success after about eight pumps the oil started to come out of the oil pressure hole
oil coming out of the oil pressure hole

stopped pumping and put the plug back in used about 1/3 of a 4 pint container
pre lube done

dead happy Steve right again
