Hi I've just got my C11g going after 14years, I'm a little unsure whether you should see the oil spurting back into the oil tank when running. At the moment the oil stays steady round the top of the filter
Thanks

The return side of the pump is greater than the feed. Once the sump is cleared of oil the supply to the oil tank will be in spurts.

Thanks for that advice, the sump had quite a bit of oil in it
