No oil pressure doesn't care about 6 quarts or 8 quarts it just makes sure at HIGH RPM the pan isn't sucked dry..

...correctly before proceeding. Cranked it with a remote switch (ignition off). I could see that the air bubbles in the oil pressure gauge line were not moving. Cranked for 10-15 seconds, no oil pressure. I didn’t like that, so I pull the distributor and primed with a drill. Came right up to...

The SunPro oil pressure gauge idles at 75psi. I can’t be sure the gauge is correct but if it’s accurate is that too high?

71-74 rallye dash no numbers just hashes if memory serves me

Here’s a clip taken immediately after firing it up for cam break-in. No shifter boot so a bit of smoke but it went away quickly. Oh, notice the oil pressure

Ever watch an oil sight glass for a sleeve bearing where you increase flow and pressure and all of a sudden it starts foaming? I have. No foaming at lower flow and pressure. Does the same thing happen inside an engine? How do you know? Like I said, talk to a tribologist if you want to get...

So five main bearings, each with an area about twice the size of the thrust surface... Add to the they are horizontal surfaces where oil with tend to puddle whereas the thrust surface is vertical and tends to shed oil... Enough already, you do you, I'll continue to put my manual trans in...

This is a Used Oil Pressure Gauge Sending Unit. It is for a oil pressure gauge, not a idiot light. I can no longer remember what year or model this one came out of, but I'm sure it worked or I wouldn't have saved it. $15.00. Local pickup, or buyer pays shipping.

It’s a Dakota digital dash, so looks stock but does have a digital output to show metrics.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too - at cold start, I would want as minimum friction as possible. But, the shop recommended this combo to increase oil pressure. I was thinking 'if' I did run the straight 40w, then no Lucas additive as the 40w here in PA should be thick enough. But, again...

Last year I dealt with the dreaded rear main seal leak on my coronets 318. After trying four different seals I was able to stop the leak. A couple of weeks ago I noticed a drop of oil at the bottom of the bell housing and panicked! I removed the transmission inspection port and no oil buildup...

Make sure you have the blue o ring that seals the pickup tube to the actual pump. I work at a dealer and have seen many times where the o ring has been overlooked and no oil pressure

The one that gets pressed in under the main cap is a hidden one that is easier to miss because you don't really see it. That one causes near complete loss of oil pressure. The screw-in one near the distributor I missed caused lower oil pressure everywhere, but most notably in the left side...

Hey guys, I just got a "new" to me 1968 Charger with a "rebuilt" 383. Come to find out the guy I got it from had 0 idea on how to build the car and did a lot of things very half assed. The oil pressure gauge in the car doesn't work so hooked a mechanical gauge to it. I think the car sat for...

The handset (aka the oil pressure sender connected to the ECU harness) is plumbed into the/a oil port in the front the block where the original sending unit was (I believe). I also have a manual gauge plumbed into the return line from the oil filter which showed a slight bit of oil but no...

Currently working on the valve gear noise. Might need slightly longer pushrods. Phoning CompCams. On hold at the moment. Engine is clean, no wear to mention, other than the timing chain. Compcam said they have pushrods 13 thou longer than stock. I will make more accurate measurements tomorrow...

To add more cooking oil to the fire, here's another mention. LOL. I can see this whole thing turning into a food for thought fight. LOL. NO NO NO!!!!! 1/4" is way too tight. Please don't set it to that. 3/8" min. 1/2" max. I shoot for 7/16" sure 1/8", 1/4" etc will work, but here's what...

...with a mechanical gauge... doesn't knock and I've been waiting for it to seize up for 35 years! 2 weeks ago on our way to the Wasaga Beach car show my Wife called out on the 2 ways, "I have no oil pressure" and before I could reply the Son did and said "so what else is new, is it knockin' Mom".

Everything on the filter is on the pressure side of the pump. If anything on the filter leaks, only oil comes out, no air goes in

This question is pertaining to my last about distance from the oil pan floor, so if the oil pump pick up is too close to the oil pan sump floor, can it suck it up to a certain degree? I ask this because both my old pick up and new one supplied with the deep sump 7 quart pan are hanging a 1/2...
