so I drained the new oil and pulled the oil pump

It is a new muscle motors unit. Not a milidon (I forgot that I got this one recently, It was internal before)

The valve slides in and out for the first half easily but gets jammed going all the way in. It needs to be forced to open and close completely.
It got be a bit of casting that the valve is getting stuck on

Not the wear on the housing and the pump I am not sure if the pump could not turn of if it wa sthe valve of what series on events transpired.
