Search results for query: no oil pressure

the 69 and earlier cars do not have a low pressure cut out switch. The compressor does have it's own "pump" and I believe that is for oiling the crank, the top end (pistons & rods) will not be lubricated unless the system is charged. Mine was a completely rebuilt unit by an experienced shop and...

I will second the GJ site. I have epoxy in my parking area and we use the room for parties too. It easily cleans up. My shop floor is clear sealed concrete but, spilled gasoline will soften and raise hell with the sealer. Sparks from cutting torches and welding will/can mar any floor. Even with...

Ok, I very carefully installed my wire set-up on my 727, making sure the hole on the carb lever was exactly where it should be (I took the special mopar bouchillion throttle plate to double check with.) I tested several arms (Different lengths) down on the throttle lever on the 727. I got a...

Is it safe for the oil filter to run a no bypass oiling system with a high pressure high volume big block pump?

New ARP bolts for the block. Block is fresh and clean. No oil was put in until last night when I went to prime. Ran up to 80 psi quickly but was a long time to get oil to the rockers. Finally it came in as I was getting worried. That is making me think that the right bank has a hole somewhere...

here is a quick video of a cold start and run for a minute to show oil pressure, no smoke and hear the cam.

From my experience, use a Wix filter, not Fram. From an earlier post, if a pushrod bends and a lifter pops out of its bore (highly unlikely), you would have NO oil pressure, not just low.

Hey all, so yesterday I was tearing apart my 383 from 69. Since it lost oil pressure last year and while I was tearing it down, I found that some of the very outer edges of the cam lobes were pretty jagged but all the lifters looked in good shape and the lobes themselves looked fine as well. I...

You should be able to get a replacement drain plug, either from Mopar or at an auto parts store. Get one with a magnet on it (you'll see why). I'm willing to bet the pan threads are fine; worst case you may need to run a tap through them before installing the new drain plug. Get a...

I have found no one wants to know about warranty when it means shipping to Australia I May have found the answer when the started from cold it takes 4 to 5 seconds for the oil to start pumping out the lifters if i open up the restrictors to speed up the process my oil pressure starts to drop...

That's really cool to see the actual tool originally used to calibrate the gauges. I also note that each gauge is tuned slightly different on the plus/minus target. Definitely, great info. To clarify on my question, I have already done the gauges, although not with that exact extra "+/-...

Good advice, Thanks.

1969 Superbee Rallye dash, was removed, cleaned, new gage backgrounds, painted needles. All lamps removed, contact areas cleaned, all new lamps installed. Before all this, everything worked, all 4 gages, even the fuel gage worked! Now--- only voltage gage works, the other 3 dead. All lights...

Yea... I did. Running through a host of other minor issues like no tach, no temp and no oil pressure readings. The 5v converter is gone TU on me I think.

Leaks way too much, No that's not going to work. And if it leaks that much it's probably the rear main, because there is oil pressure there. Did you tighten the oil pan bolts?

Here's a rebuild kit with both springs and everything else to rebuild a standard volume pump, kinda pricey though. I'm a fan of high volume/standard pressure pumps. If you've ever primed an engine, a high pressure pump will ask a lot of your drill. Plus no risk of snapping an intermediate shaft...

Your sheen variation looks similar to my polyaspartic.

I went with epoxy coating, I have done everything in there but haven’t used a cutting torch. No need to for me. It is extremely durable. We get a lot of sand/salt mix on our roads and in the spring ,Pressure wash the floor and it’s like new. Gas ,oil antifreeze does not affect it. I had garage...

How screwed am I? Should I pull the engine right away or just the head? I am certain I caught this right away, it couldn't have run more than 45 seconds with coolant in the oil but that's long enough for it to circulate and get in all my nice new bearings. Experience only here please is a flush...

B Better too much oil pressure than not.....oil pressure is cheaper than bearing replacement. The GTX HIGH VOLUME PUMP AND 10W-30 MOBIL1: Cold=80 psi; hot @1200rpm=60 psi; hot @ 4000rpm=75 psi. Zero wear on distributor bushing or gear. BOB RENTON
