Have a friend with an 8N. Was running fine, had 20 psi oil press. He installed an electronic ignition system. On frist start up it kind of miss fired. Started on next try, but now has no oil pressure. I know it is a strange one, would appreciate any ideas.

Thank you

Thanks for the replys. Did have him unhook the line to the pressure gauge. Would not pump out any oil. Had him remove the press relief valve and pump in some 80-90 with a light air pressure a couple times. Have not heard back. Hope it worked.
 
Might check the pressure relief valve too. Sounds like the situation I had with my 9N, had to put in a new oil pump, it just quit suddenly. Of course I found out later from this forum I didn't do all I should have (I just dropped the pan, and bolted in the new one) but it's working fine these many years later. Sometimes you get lucky.
 
Drain the crankcase. Give the motor a DRE to check if the pickup pipe is still solidly attatched to the oil pump cover.
