I close the valve to mine before shutting down -- and open it before starting to create oil pressure. At least that's the way Charley told me to do it.
Can you set an accumulator up to introduce oil at a specified oil pressure? Once that oil is introduced into the system does it retrieve it back when pressures are adequate?
