just fired up my 88 for the first time and have no oil pressure.oil is moving fine but there"s no pressure. block was completely bare when I got it so when we fired it up the first time it didn"t have the oil relief valve in it. went out back and robbed that from a different tractor. fired it up again no pressure. took pan off took pump off. pickup was really dirty... yea I mustve forgotten to clean it before I put it in. also the pickup seems to have oil in inside it like there is a hole in it or something. but when u shake it no oil comes out. veins are correct according to it manual. put the pump in a bucket of oil and it pumps fine. put it all back together and fired it up still no pressure. my question is am I forgetting something else in the block somewhere? is there another hole that needs to be plugged inside? are my main bearings installed wrong somehow? crank and mains were in the block when I got it... and no were not going just by the gauge.we r taking the gauge wire off at the block I would assume u shouldn"t b able to hold your finger over that hole while its running? the oil comes out of the hole fine there"s just no pressure behind it....
