what i used was a tool that you use with a drill that goes down inside where the dist. is.it's best to use a variable speed drill with this tool.

I made a pump primer out of an old distributer shaft which works well, but all my pumps still needed to be packed with vaseline first. Otherwise, the spinning gears won't pull oil from the pan. GB
