Just added oil to my new 912ULS and am trying to do the purge procedure for the first time. It seemed to work OK except for the oil pressure reading - I'm getting a pressure reading of 60 - 65 psi on the Skyview at something like 20 RPM. I can get it above that pressure if I turn the prop faster. Is that normal?
I've checked the lines and they're hooked up correctly. I get a small amount of oil out of the return line when I'm turning the prop so the oil circuit seems complete. I've got about 10# of pressure into the breather on the oil reservoir and the IN connection on the reservoir is plugged. I can't figure out how to get the end of the normal return line below the engine so I've put a clear plastic tube on the oil fitting at the bottom of the engine in its place.
