How is this done: exactly as I said - enough pan depth and control devices to keep the pickup covered.
That's all it takes.
Sometimes this was "discovered" by accident:
They kept losing motors until they added enough oil that the crank itself was splashing through it - yes, it increases oil temperature and reduces power but the rods always got enough.
oil not in the sump?
so, the galleries/system etc would have a gallon of oil in it?
Ever open the top of a blender when it's making a milkshake?
Did the milk stay in the bottom, where you put it? Or did it try to get as far away from the blades as possible, including out the top and on your face?
That's what the oil does.
