I'm looking at the best way to install the oil pressure sending unit (keeping the distruibutor in place) and when I see the high pressure line installation (greaser or paint gun) I wonder what happens to the air that is trapped. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
Do people usually purge the line by unscrewing the sender a bit? Does the air eventually escape (how and why)? Couldn't this cause a momentary oil starvation? Where else (or how) do you install the sender without having a dead end air trap situation? Thank you for your input (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

I'm not sure I would go with a rigid tube because of the same vibration/hammer effect on the fittings & block.
It seems like the hose works well for many of you. I will also set it up that way. ...But I'm still wondering where that air goes...I might try to fill the line upon installation. Thank you for your input! |
