Overview
The Melling MPL-201 Oil Pump Priming Tank is a 2-gallon stainless steel unit designed to pre-lubricate engines before their first startup, helping to prevent dry starts and reduce initial wear on critical engine components. This is especially useful for engines where traditional priming methods are not feasible due to the oil pump's placement over the crankshaft. The tank features a built-in 75 PSI safety blow-off valve to prevent over-pressurization, and comes equipped with an 8-foot chemical-resistant hose with swivel ends for ease of use. It includes multiple NPT fittings for compatibility with various engine types and built-in handles for convenient transport. Proudly made in the USA, the MPL-201 is a professional-grade tool ideal for engine builders and serious DIYers.
