Priming the oil pump is crucial to ensure proper lubrication and prevent engine damage. When an engine is started for the first time or after a prolonged period of inactivity, air can become trapped in the oil system, leading to a lack of oil flow. Priming helps to eliminate this air, allowing oil to circulate immediately and providing essential lubrication to critical engine components. This process minimizes wear and tear, prolonging the lifespan of the engine.

To prime it, remove the check valve plug (the highest part on the pump) and fill that cavity with oil, then replace the plug and crank the motor.
