QUOTE: Originally posted by Dayliner I'm involved with the restoration, maintenance and operation of an MLW S3 (660 HP, M&S 539 normally-aspirated 6-cylinder engine, blt 1951). Some people in our organization are advocating the use of pre-lube pump on start-up. The manual doesn't specify using one, and it always starts fine without one, but there is a fitting for connecting the pump to the lube system. Any Alco veterans out there with some thoughts?
