Cubs are notorious for loosing oil prime, There is a 1/4" plug in the oil gallery (I think near the oil filter) which can be used to refill all the lines and get it going. Either there, or in the fitting where the pressure gauge screws into the block. Put a small rubber hose on a squirt oilcan and pump in several oilcans full of a thick oil like 20-50. Continue pumping until there is some resistance to the trigger on the pump, then pump slower for several more pumps on the oilcan. This should prime the pump. Return the fitting you removed and start it. Do not run it for more than 30 seconds or so without oil pressure. If it fails to prime, repeat the above. Others may have other methods this is mine. The oil pump is in the block and cannot be accessed from the pan. Splitting the tractor is the only way to get there. Good luck, JimN
