Default Urgent help needed,how long before oil pump picks up??

How long should it take before i get oil coming through the
oil feed line to the turbo?

The pump HASNT been primed,ive filled the engine with the right
amount of oil and i also removed the plugs to try and help the turnover speed but i still cant get any oil pick up and the engine also killed a
fully charged battery

Is there anything else i can do to help the oil pump pick up?

Cheers

When we were preparing to start Nightdavvas car the other week we tried turning the car over & over for about 10minutes on & off without any sign of any oil from the oil return pipe of the turbo.

Then we attached a drill to the oil feed drive & within a minute or so we had oil!!!

I know yours aint a cossie lump but could you do something similar perhaps???

HTH!!

Over fill it with oil, put 2gallons in then crank it till it comes out turbo oil feed. Drain in back to normal level and all should be ok.
