Just to correct Fizz...
for priming the system, you take the pipe off the rubber bit on the breather hose... (i.e. leave the rubber bit connected to resevoir) and on your scottoiler bottle and pipe etc, at the end is a nozzle you stick into the rubber bit... after you have set the scottoiler to prime, squeze the oil into the resevoir, and keep on squeezing until oil starts to come out of the nozzle on your sprocket, making sure there is no air in the pipe... your system is now primed..... its a gravity fed system, so needs the oil already in the pipe to start pulling the rest of it out with it...

dose the engine need to be running?

Cut it, and if petrol comes out, it's the wrong one.

Hmm, that's not totally helpful. It's the one that sticks out the bottom of the tap as in your pic, and runs down to the rear cylider. The other one that runs across the bike to the fuel pump (thing bolted to the right hand side frame) is the fuel line. It's also fatter, the vac line is thinner.

But seriously, if you're in any doubt, just disconnect it from the tap and see if there's fuel in it. It won't pour out in any volume even if there is- the fuel tap's switched off as long as there's no vacuum being applied, ie, when the engine's off.

for priming the system, no the engine doesnt need to be running, just the dial turned to prime... which effectively opens up the valve so oil can flow...
