I am about to start the O320 with CS prop. At this moment there is oil pressure indicated when turning the motor on the starter without plugs.
Nowhere do I find reference to bleeding air from the prop govenor, propeller or lines. The nearest reference seems to be to cycle the prop in the normal manner to get rid of any trapped air.
The question: Is there any reference I have missed? Has anyone loosened the forward tube fitting near the front bearing to release air?
Do I have to worry about this at all?
