d.
Connect the engine dc electrical system to four 200 ampere-hour batteries 76-11252, or equivalent connected in
series-parallel to provide 24 V.
e.
Fill and prime the engine lubrication system as follows:
CAUTION
Serious engine damage will result If the engine is started before the lubrication system is
properly filled and primed. Elapsed time between priming the lubrication system and starting
the engine shall not exceed 3 hours. If, for whatever reason, the engine cannot be started
within 3 hours after priming the lubrication system, repeat the entire priming procedure just
prior to starting the engine.
(1)
Fill the crankcase with lubricating oil, MIL-L-2104, to the L mark on the dipstick or oil level indicator.
(2)
Remove the oil inlet lines to the turbochargers and add 2 to 3 ounces (59 to 89 mL) of lubricating oil,
MIL-L-21004, to the turbochargers. Reconnect the oil inlet lines.
(3)
Connect the prelude pump through a switch to the 24 V dc source.
(4)
Operate the prelude pump to obtain a pressure of 30 psi (207 kPa) on the oil pressure gage.
(5)
With the prelude pump still operating close the fuel shutoff valve, operate the starter switch, and crank
the engine for at least 15 seconds while maintaining an oil pressure of at least 15 psi (103 kPa).
(6)
Fill the crankcase to the H mark on the dipstick or level gage with lubricating oil, MIL-L-2104.
