Bleed the oil lines?

[HawkX66]

I just repaired the oil reservoir on my 01 GTX di so I had it completely off. I'm assuming I need to bleed the oil lines now. How do I do that? I don't think I can even see the pump under the exhaust on my machine.

Thanks.

You just need to open the bleed screw on the pump and let it gravity fill until there is no air in the supply line. You may have to just feel around until you can get a wrench on it...

Thanks Jeremy. I can't even reach it through the hole when I remove my glove box. I ended up pulling the plugs, holding the throttle wide open and spinning the starter a few times 5 seconds at a time. Hopefully that'll do the trick. I only pulled the one hose off that goes from the tank to the pump when I was working on it.
