[QUOTE="Bill Cannon, post: 46211, member: 152"] Hi everyone, The five year 1200 conversion of my Egli is finished. Hoorah! I thought it would be a good idea to use starting rollers to get the oil circulating before I attempted to start it. Have done that but no oil return after more than a minute on the rollers. During the rebuild I changed from a twin start oil pump back to single start one, so this is the first time I've turned it over with this pump. The twin start used to circulate within about twenty seconds. Is it normal for the single start to take so much longer or have I got a problem somewhere? Any advice appreciated. Thanks Bill Cannon Sent from my iPad [/QUOTE]
