[Shotimes] lost MPG due to fuel pump?

[D Potter]

Until you can get this process to prime the oil passages without turning the
motor AT ALL, the "fill the oil filter" proponents will never fade away (I'm
one, but I LIKE my car). Now, who's gonna find a way to prime the oil
passages everytime the car is started (without lugging about an oil
sump)????
