Starting a TA

Post by Tom Lange, MGT Repair » Wed Aug 17, 2016 11:36 am

I am starting work on a TA, sleeping for some 45 years. As I am unfamiliar with the specifics of these engines, are there any tricks to priming the TA's oil system upon start-up? Anything else I should know, look for or do?

I'm not aware of anything different than on an XPAG. Pack the oil pump, etc. Garden sprayer as a pressure pump works too, although I'm not sure the best connection point on MPJG.
