Didn’t do an oil purge?
in 912 / 914 Technical Questions

Hi,
I recently had the oil cooler disconnected on my 912ULS, when putting the oil cooler back on, I topped up oil levels to the full mark, however I was unaware that an oil purge is required after doing such, it took about 15-20 seconds for oil pressure to display on the gauge after initial start up and the engine ran about .5-1hr after the whole ordeal, just wondering if I should be concerned of possible engine damage and if it would be worthwhile to maybe do a purge at this point before starting the engine again?
Thank you
