    100LL or car gas? Jim -----Original Message----- From: krazydoc33 Sent: Monday, April 07, 2014 8:57 PM Subject: RotaxEngines-List: Re: oil change question Hi Jim, The panel is a Dynon skyView, when the master is on so are all the senders. As others have suggested the oil pump needed to be primed. I think what happened is that I left the oil filter off overnight to let it drain down and it also drained the oil pump down too. I purged the system per the Rotax manual and all is now well. I did remove all the top plugs to be able to spin the engine over easier. This engine has always run with a black sooty exhaust pipe. The front two plugs have a black sooty deposit on them but the two rear plugs look fine, a light brown color. Any suggestions? Thanks.
