Whatever you do, isolate the problem to either the engine or the transmission before you start pulling the truck apart. Just sayin'... |
The oil pressure on my gauge is reading about 55-60 PSI on idle. it's hard to get an accurate reading because the timing/carb tuning is all off and trying to get it to run smoothly is a challenge to get an accurate reading.
I will be checking out the starter just in case it's hanging up then probably look at the flex plate. Then if anything else then compression test and hopefully it's not something in the motor. Last thing I need right now is to replace the engine.
