I went to pre the oil pump and can't seem to get oil at the rockers. I have oil at the pressure switch connection but nothing up top. Any suggestions? | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 2,393 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 2,393 | Is the feed line under the lifter cover connected?
