It was discussed.. but never missed a beat prior to engine swap and also when it does start it's normal not when the key comes off cranking. Hotwire?

RUNAMUCK 26,404 Report post Posted August 7, 2017 Something else must have been amiss. Failure to run properly wouldn't deprive the bearings of oil bad enough to cause the damage seen there. If you've ever cranked and engine with the oil pressure sender removed they move a fuck tonne of oil even at cranking speed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Mk1 3,125 Report post Posted August 7, 2017 I like your moreys trick to help build initial pressure noted in another thread .. Do you fill the filter with oil and feed the moreys into the pump until it's about to puke into the block, spin filter on and bolt it up? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
