OK, so i asked my mechanic to clarify what the problem with the oil distributor is and he said he doesnt know if the oil distributor is working or not, but if there is a new part available I could use it. He said he doesnt want to take off the oil distributor until its respective replacement gaskets are here to seal it back up with (shipping as we speak).
Since the overall problem with the engine has been the failure of the oil to get all the way up to the rockers, he thinks the oil distributor may be contributing to the overall problem.
But today the new oil pump arrives and he will put that in and if the new oil pump works, then I would guess the oil distributor is working fine... hes also cleared every other path for the oil all the way up.
So thats what is going on.... this is all somewhat new to me so forgive me if my nomenclature is incorrect. Thanks again.
