G.M.

Thanks for posting this. I have searched the site (including the archives), but can't find what you are referring to. I think I see how it works, but I have a question. Is the hose coming out of the fitting behind the gauge to direct the oil from the pump back to container in which the pump is run? Does it have a restriction in it to simulate the resistance of the bearings, etc. If it is, I think I understand it.
