Electric oil pump priming

[Softewar]

Hello All,

I am new to this site, but have found this site enormously helpful, It seems to touch on just about every topic I could think of.

I own a 2003 Islandia with a 240 jet drive, apparently it was built in the latter part of the year as it has the new fuel injection system, new electric oil pump and other updates that Mercury made.

I am wondering if anyone can help explain how to prime the electric oil pump without using the DDT (digital diagnostic terminal). There are two procedures in the manual but both involve the use of DDT. The reason I need to prime the oil pump is that I replaced all the oil lines.

On another note, Mercury did away with the old crack shaft driven oil injection system, mine is drive by the electric oil pump mentioned above and it's managed directly through the ECM.

Thank you, Albert

Without the tool... I'm not sure. Can you just put 12v on it?

I'll look over the manual later tonight, and give you some more input.

Easy Peasy-
Squeeze off the oil line coming from the the remote oil tank.
Apply 3lbs of air pressure to bottom fitting of the brass valve located near the bottom of eng mounted res tank.
You'll see the level (in the eng mounted tank) slowly drop. Once the level drops a couple inches, remove the pressure.
