I have replaced the oil pump (tested it on the bench with a drill and primed it) I have replaced the guage and the tube going to the guage. I can spin a drill on the oil pump with the distributer removed and see a tricle comming from the rocker arm shaft and a slow stream comming from the return line at the rocker arm shaft. If I remove the tube that goes to the guage I just get a slow drip. I even blew all the lines out with compressed air when the oil pan and oil pump was removed. Any ideas? I'm out of them
If it's broke hit it harder!
