460 governor problem revisited

Posted by Ol Chief on August 01, 2004 at 20:30:55 from (63.246.191.221):

I recently asked for help on governor and timing gear lubrication. Since then Ihave rebuilt the governor and in the process discovered ( while cleaning ) a tiny oil passage in the upper left corner of the housing.This opening aligns with a simular passage on the engine block.I have tried to fish this passage by using a piece of 22 gage trailer wire with the plastic insulating jacket intact.I was able to get around at least one 90 degree turn and in about three more inches then could go no farther.When I extracted the wire it had coating of gasket shellac on it.Obviously there is an obstuction because neither the governor or timing gears are getting oil. If anyone has a schematic of the 460 gas engine oll system I will certainly appreciate any info it may offer. I am just a short time away from from having to open up the front of this engine unless I can find any other way to solve my problem.
