oil Pre-lube pump and check valve?
 

i have done some searching for an oil pre-lube system but it seems that all the companies that did offer one, either no longer do or have gone out of business...

has anyone built their own kit? if so, what model pump and filter did you use?

thanks!

What do you think of this?

yeah, that's all ive been able to find... what i'm looking for is a pump rather than a pressurized tank or accumulator.

then, it could serve multiple purposes.

prime system for initial startup of each season
act as backup pump if there are oil pressure issues (verify oil pressure w/o motor running if gauge drops)
easy oil changes
no dry starts during the boating season

Doing some OSO searching i found this picture that Vinnie P posted.
this is the kind of setup i'm looking for

and check valve

yeah, i saw that one too... $700 seems like a lot for that kit. i think i'm just going to plumb my own w/ that pump and check valve i listed.

Not what your looking for but I have 2 complete systems from Master Lube available.

I have a Pre-Luber by Enginelube.com electric pump type system. I bought it, used, years ago from someone on the list. Never got around to installing it. I think the company that was selling them is out of business. Complete with pump relays wire harness. No instructions.

If you want pics I will take some Friday but will need your email as I can not post pics.
