Mr. Carb Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 Well, I got it all together, Everything's streight and fixed... and mounts... http://usmb.net/gallery/album107 check out the newest album, it has pictures from today after I completly assembled it. Everythings bolted on! However, I ran into a new problem. When it runs for a good 20 minutes... the oil pressure runs 50psi-75psi (runs into the 75psi range when throttle hits 1,500 or higher) Suddenly drops to 0psi... and then the engine kinda makes a low rumble kinda soft clunking sound, when it idles... now if it was a shot oil pump, I was thinking it wouldn't work at all.... Anyone have any ideas what it might be? Any info is as always much apriciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Carb Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 Well actually it has just barely a little to much oil in it, it's about an 8th inch past the full mark on the dip stick. so theres an oil pressure regulator in there someware?

Mr. Carb Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 Also if I rev the engine up to about 3,000 rpms, the oil pressure does barely lift off of zero, barely..... it gets no where near 25psi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
