I just rebuilt my motor and realized that I didn't prime the oil pump with a drill on the oil pump sprocket nut. I did however pack the oil pump with vaseline when I did my balance shaft delete. Is that going to cause enough seal to prime itself with a few cranks? Or do I need to take the timing belt off and prime it with a drill?

Thanks!
 
The link he gave you is an awesome way to prime the pump, i always do it this way.
 
I just pulled the injector clips off off mine when I went to prime it... No fuel, engine wont start, easy to prime...Primed til to little oil light went off....
 
I followed the instruction but cant find where the fuel pump fuse is? it says location varies on set up, I have a stock 92 talon tsi. all my online searches just end up showing the 2g's location under the dash
