No Oil Pressor...

Hey ..
Iv just had my motor running long enuff to check the guages..
Fuel Press is holding at: 4.6lbs
Oil: -N/A- My Guage has power & the sender wire is hooked up.. Maybe bad new sencer?

Things Im Checking on..
Pull Valve Cover To see if it has oil..

Recheck sender & wires..

What all can you think of..
the motor ran fin before the overhall.
I changed the valve covers,header/exhaust,Carbs,fan,alt,tins,wiring
ign system,fuel system,pully system

>>1st Time Running Video<<

Thanks N Advance
Peace Troy

for your oil pressure gauge, are you useing a special sender or the stock sender? The stock sender isn't made for a gauge, only to make a light in the dash go out when there is pressure, Just to be courius, is the engine/transmission grounded to the frame?

if you're using solid mounts or you didn't take the tranny out, it should be there.

if your running a full flow setup try taking the line off the pump cover, pour some oil down it, then try starting it. mine doesn't like to prime after a build and that always works for me. btw- leave the line hooked to the pump cover itself, unhook it from the other end

Im not full flow yet..
But i will keep that inmind for after I do..
Iv been looking for leaks & found a few..
Dip-Stick,Alt Stand,Filler/breather on the mounting spot..
I think (As stated)My Oil Press maybe for a Light only..
But its running ok for now..
lil timming & carb tuning then i should be ok..
Peace Troy
