).
O
perate the starting control or key switch
and motor the engine over on the starter until
an oil pressure of approximately 40 kPa (5 lb/
in
²
) is indicated on the pressure gauge.
Continue for a further 10 seconds to ensure
that the oil has reached the turbochargers,
and stop the engine by releasing the start
control. Disconnect the battery leads and
reconnect the electric plug in the actuator.
Reconnect the battery leads.
