1-3-2-4 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Does anyone know what the ballpark cranking rpm is on a fresh battery? Looking to see how long it takes for the oil to be primed and start pumping, I assume if the oil filter is pre-filled it should not take that long?

1-3-2-4 Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 I'm guessing around 150 rpm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 250 - 300 is normal for a good battery and good starter. Pull the plugs and crank it over. Should only take 10-15 seconds for the light to go out. Make sure to unplug the fuel injectors and the igniter. Don't need fuel spraying out of the cylinders and getting lit by the plug wires arcing.

1-3-2-4 Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 I was going to crank with the plugs in only because it's a DOHC heads it's a pain to put in while in car.. but a lot faster then what I had in mind.. I installed a oil pressure gauge so I assume when I start building pressure it should start to read.. I used a Add-a-fuse to the engine ign so I will have power to the gauge when cranking. I will see if I can document it on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
