I bought a Ford 600 that has sat for a few years. Had an older gent check it out. Got it started, sounded ok then I get puzzled. The oil pressure is about 70 psi. Then the oil filter starts to leak. Engine also has what I call a rattle. I'm thinking something is stopped up causing the OP to go up, the oil filter to leak, and the rattle. The gasket looks fine on the filter. I plan to get a new filter tomorrow but don't expect that to change anything. This is a new one for me. Anybody got any ideas. Is there a bearing somewhere that could have spun closing off an oil passage or ???
