    10 sec no load, It MIGHT be okay. These engines die quick with no oil pressure.
    Was the filter adapter together wrong? Spring in first, then cup of plunger over spring, gasket and filter adapter. Ive seen people say to fill the pump with vasoline aswell. Ive never tried that though

    Pretty lopey; yes.

    Depends on what your idle is set at too...turn it down to about 700 or so.
