I thought that was it He must have found a full tube of RTV in the pick up tube. Unless it was a giant gob of RTV that closed off the p/u tube , it should have disintegrated when it hit the pump. And how did a giant piece of RTV get past the screen on the sump. And where did 60 PSI come from with the P/U tube closed off ?

I will try to post the pic of the pick-up screen. If it doesn't post suffice it to say the screen was not checked or cleaned before assembly. It will be now. 8376568-challengerscreen.jpeg (78 downloads)

Lost a bunch of oil running down the road, and had forgotten to plug the idiot light onto the oil sending unit. Didn't know I was loosing oil until the lifters started talking, & then I saw the smoke screen in the rear view mirror. I got off lucky just toasting all the bearings in the fresh engine. Had to pull & clean and inspect every thing. Got the big center bolt tight the 2nd time! Scott B. "I'm a self-made man...

I got a van 318 that looks like that pick up screen. the screen was close to a match also. this engine would pump oil up top then starve for oil at the pump due to not returning the oil to the pan fast enough. shut it down and wait 10 mins, it would drain back to the pan. fire it up it would have oil psi then fall off to 0 again. same thing, bearings were toast and pump chewed up from carbon chunks. good luck with the new bearings 8393491-dirty318.jpg (47 downloads) Last edited by scratchnfotraction; 01/12/15 11:38 AM.
