Hey Guys,
After my last outing I noticed a very large amount of oil coming out of lower cowling of my motor. I took good off and oil was everywhere. After reading about oil leaks I check the oil pump and it was bone dry. All oil on port side. Seems to be from reservoir best I can tell. I checked the cap and it was rather loose. If I change the reservoir can I prime by using compressed air into remote fill until oil runs out engine reservoir? Gas a $6 a gallon has us all desperate. I greatly appreciate you help and your time.
ps if there is something else I should check for oil leak let me know. I degreased engine and ordered leak glasses and UV light. But feel like it was the reservoir bc of oil being all over port side. (No oil present around compressor)
