Hi all, could really use some help here.
This weekend I finished the install of the timing chain in my 440. Since it was also leaking oil badly took the opportunity to also replace main seals so it sat for a while with the pan off. Was a little nervous since I never did this before, but she started right up. Problem is the oil pressure warning light stays on.
The oil pressure sending unit is new. The new oil is 10w40 and it reads just under the full mark on the dipstick. The oil filter is a new Wix 51068 and I pre filled it before installation. When I removed the filter and cranked the engine on the starter no oil is coming out of the pump outlet. It had good oil pressure before I took it apart.
I plan on pulling the oil pump, or am I missing something here?
