A friend is looking at a 1976 Palm Beach that has been sitting for about three years. Taking the advice from this forum, I suggested to him that we pre-oil the engine before attempting a start up.

Here are a few questions: What type of end does the shaft on the drill need to have to fit into the oil pump drive once the distributor is removed?

Also, does it spin counterclockwise or clockwise to build pressure?

Will I be able to see pressure on the gauge if the switch is on and the gauge is functional while spinning the pump?

Thank you.
