Gtm sc install
 
Long story short i have a stage 1 GTM SC, i recently dropped the blower and changed the fluid, filter and swapped pulleys. This past weekend i put everything back together, and now when i go to prime the rotrex oil system it doesn't want to suck oil out from the reservoir. I ran it three times and oil just keeps rising in the reservoir. i've checked all oil lines for kinks or sharp bends and can't find anything. Im 100% sure the filter is facing the correct direction but i can't remember if you have to line up the banjo bolts a certain way to allow fluid to flow through them? Anyone have any suggestions before i rip this thing apart again?

Are you priming it by blowing compressed air into the system, with the top of the reservoir banjo bolt un hooked? Then shooting compressed air (8lbs) into the sealed off resv. opening. I used a synthetic cork to seal the opening and ran my air gun extension through the cork. Fluid should come through the banjo bolt after a few minutes. Arrow on the filter points toward the rear of the car.
Also the line out of the filter MUST go into the inlet of the SC housing!!

I did exactly that, i guess i didn't have enough pressure on the reservoir side cause i never saw fluid pour out the banjo bolt. So i just hooked up my vacuum bleeder to the outlet hose on the blower and sucked all the air out until fluid came through. All is well, i just got a little worried i ****** something up.
