Want to update on this, still not happy with how long it takes to build pressure.
it takes over 30-40 seconds of cranking. It does build up but not like it use to.
So pulled the pan and took the pump out, opened the pump and it was clean inside
relief valve moves freely I can see oil up on the cam and pistons.
So I have pressure but why so long to build after no internal changes?
Thoughts and Thanks
When installing the
new hedders I had to raise the motor and looks like I dented the pan enough to have the pickup
make a witness mark on the bottom of the pan. Also had a thick layer of brown sludge where the pick
up sits (oil is Clean). Cleaned the pan and ready to put back together I hop it was just a combo of those 2.
No clue what the sludge was, not abrasive and no metal and yes I bent the pan back
