I took out the oil line banjo bolt and poked a WD40 plastic straw in there and it does not go through. I blew compressed air in there and put the banjo back, cranked the engine with IP emergency shut off lever depressed for about 3 x 20 seconds and the timing port plug out and no oil came out of there.

Filled the IP with fresh oil via the top bolt (17 mm wrench). I'll check if it is fresh or black when I take the plug out again which may give an indication of oil flow rate.

Still like to know how much oil and at what rate it should be flowing into and out of the IP when running.
