Following the recommended priming procedure of 2 to 5 seconds High Boost pump with the mixture in prior to engine start, results in Oil drooling the length of the fuselage.  I routed the hoses from each cylinder to avoid any low spots that would accumulate fuel/oil.   Any suggestions?

 

Oh yeah, when I tried to put more than 7 quarts of oil in my 8 quart sump after a filter change I really had a huge mess.
