peteretep Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 Well I tried it one more time and it worked! Random but ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESKIN8R Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Maybe a stuck valve? Or really taking abit to work the oil into itself? Reading much higher pressure than the other new pump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 Yeah it went straight uP to 55psi compared to 35 on old pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Note - you pack a pump full of grease to prime them - it seems to work much better.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 and then do you just leave the grease in the engine until the next oil change? does it ever even leave? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 yeah it just becomes part of the oil.. would pay to change the oil after running an engine in anyway (not sure how fresh your engine is?? - but you normally replace the oil pump during a recondition - hence the need for a run in) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 it 'melts' into the oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
