    When cranking the first time to pump up the oil pressure just push pedal to the floor. This enables flood clear mode. Shuts off fuel injectors. So not spraying fuel into the cylinders. Also no need to leave out spark plugs if you don't want to.

    A lot of techs do not know this. If you take a loose seal on the inside, there is a spring that spring comes apart by twisting the thikes part, then you shorten the spring and reassemble that will make the seal snuggle on the shaft. 😊
