Hi, Anyone know the old style oil pump (before the intergrated one) really well? If so I have an odd ball questions! I have good pressure and oil is definately pumping throughout the motor. On the bottom of the pump housing (when it is installed) there is a smallish plug rearward from the filter/oil cooler adapter which in the older rangies contained the oil temp sender. I though I would add a oil temp gauge to my 94 Disco but on pulling off this plug I find there is no oil in that back passage of the pump. Should there be? If so how does oil get to that back passage? I can remember when I rebuilt the top end of the same motor that the timing cover gasket blocked off a few oil passages (as it was when I first pulled it apart from new) is this a clue? An ideas? Thanks Carl |
