Hi there!

I checked search to see if a thread already existed but couldn't find one.

I'm rebuilding parts of a 2tz-fe in a 91 previa altrac.

Whats the recommended way to prime the oil system before first start up?

Thank you!

In the FSM, rebuild is covered in the Cylinder Block file (attached) of the Engine Mechanical section. Priming is not required, but of course all assembly steps note use of engine oil on threads and sliding/bearing surfaces (and general note to that effect on EM-104, which you are probably already doing anyway). And all oil seals get MP grease.
