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.
