We are about to fire a new 2056 and have tried to pump oil through the system prior to igniting. I have pulled the spark plugs and hooked up an oil pressure gauge. I can crank the starter for 30 seconds or so, but nothing registering on the gauge? More cranking?
Thanks |

Yes with the assembly lube, all main and rod bearing surfaces, same with cam bearings and plenty on the lifters and cam. I spoke with my local starter/alternator rebuilder earlier and he informed me 30 seconds or 1 minute of starter running time is fine. I have tried a couple times and the last tine I did open the fitting feeding my oil pressure gauge.
Lucky for me, I have the engine/trans on a rolling stand and it is not installed in the chassis. Thanks for the feedback |
