blobthebuilder Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 ok may seem like an odd question but ive done oil changes in all my old cars but i have been told in subaru it is different.. Ive been told engine has to be turned over by hand about 300 times to fill up pump (ie no spark) and that you must not try and start car to fill pump because it will destroy the big ends so is this true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I usually pull the crank sensor plug off (will turn over with the starter motor but , won't fire up) turn it over to get the oil around the engine prior to starting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stants Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 If you've got anything other than small hands it's a bit of an !Removed! to get to, may help if you loosen the bolt that covers the alternator belt and rotate upwards, alternatively I've been told you can pull the fuel pump fuses does the same job as the crank angle sensor although I'm not sure 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
