Got my new zz4!!!??
Well I got my new zz4 on the stand. I see that it is shipped with oil in the pan. Does anyone know if i still need to prime the oil pump, or has this been done by them? Has the motor been run at the factory? just wondering???

I was under the impression that these engines had the cam's broke in at the factory and were ready to drop in and run. That would mean that you don't need to prime anything. Hopefully someone around here knows for sure. Did the engine come with any paperwork or warnings or anything?
