AND, some of the new motors have the oil pump on the front of the crank and
use a distributorless ignition, hence no distributor.
Hot Rod Magazine had an article on building a primer for them sing a small
bucket, an old style oil pump driven by a drill, I believe,
and some fittings and hose. I'm glad I'm a dinosaur.
