Re: Almost there...

Well it appears that I may have a faulty oil pump. No pressure on the gauge (and verified with another gauge tonite) and no oil getting to the top of the motor with the car running, valve covers off. So the motor has to come out.

OH F**KING JOY!!!!!

That sucks to hear, Lee.


Maybe if you actually put oil in it you may get an oil pressure reading...
