Thinking that I did not need to prime an oil pump that I had removed
and replaced untouched, save for changing the rubber "o" ring, I am
not getting any oil to the rocker arm assembly.
The oil light goes out when I turn the key on, but I see no oil
dribbling from the holes in the rockers and if I run the engine
(which I have done for 10 seconds, or so) there is a clatter under
the valve cover that was not there before and no apparent oil coming up.
One list member informed me that I should have primed the pump before
installing it. Might anyone know:
- If there is a way to coax the pump to work without removing the
pan, or the timing cover and chain?
- If I have to remove the pan and pump what is the correct
procedure for priming the pump?
- Do I need, if I remove the pump, to put in yet another new "o"
ring or can I just use the one that I put in yesterday.
Any responses on this one are welcomed.
Thanks,
Ken
