Ford 9N no oil pressure

tysmobiletractor · Aug 4, 2018

I have a 47 9N has been sitting a few years. Recently got it running. Only ran it a minute or so. A few times. But I loosened and oil lines, and even removed the filter, and ran for a quick few seconds. No oil moving anywhere.
I had after the first start. Drained oil and replaced with new and new filter.
I read a few posts about checking oil pick up tube. Which I have yet to check.
Also read about priming this pump. Saw a pic of this. But not sure where I can add oil to prime?
Any details would be great.
Thanks

This is probably the wrong forum for this. But I had this issue
with a little Ford tractor one time. I had to take the pressure
relief valve plug out of the front of the engine and put a funnel
and hose in it and add oil in to that hole which will make it run
down into the pump gears and prime it. Worked for me.

This works or you can pressurize it with a pressurized container of oil at a fitting, such as where the oil pressure line connects.

Thanks guys for your responses.
Makes sense. Just wanted details.
Like....
Where is this pressure valve ?
Or which line do I add pressurized oil through?

Thanks

It is a hex plug accessible on the front of the engine. I think it's about 15/16", 7/8" or something like that. I believe it is accessible from the left side. Hard to get a wrench in there.
Pull out spring and poppet out then add a little oil. Replace all components. Then should have oil pressure unless the pickup broke loose.

Thanks
sounds easy enough

Yeah, I just realized this is under the John Deere listing.
Sorry about that.
