yea, i might have to go buy one, mine burned up...
since i got some oil up there now, i was going to try and start it, to see if the rest will pump up... Bad idea? should i just use the drill, till they are oozing oil?

Prime the hell out of it, you are turning it by hand 90 deg. at a time aren't you. It "exposes" oil holes in the crank and stuff. Technical I know.
it's not uncommon for it to not come out the rockers at an initial fire up idle.... goose it a couple times and you should see it start coming out... at an idle you can adjust valves and barely have it coming out the whole time, throttle it up, and it's shooting over the fenders...

yea, ive heard that a couple times now... One guy said, prime it 4 different times, spinning the crank a quarter turn each time...
I will try that.
Thx for the replies.
