I speak from experience. My 1950 Farmall H had oil pressure issues. I dropped the pan, removed the oil pump, removed the bottom cover from that pump, and found the gears had worn depressions into that plate. Those depressions were a good 0.125" deep. I also took the spring out and checked it against a known good spring. There was nothing wrong with the spring. As I no longer have access to a milling machine (used to work in a machine shop) I used a large, flat file to restore the cover plate to its original state of flatness (dial indicator was implemented). I put it all back together, filled the pan with 15w-40 oil, and the oil pressure is now excellent. Just to further clarify, I went to SWCC in Creston, Iowa 1970-1971 and took the auto mechanics course. I then worked as a mechanic for a local John Deere dealer, later worked as a mechanic at a local Ford car and truck dealer, and also worked as a mechanic at an independent auto repair shop. In between mechanic jobs, I farmed, held a few other jobs, but always did ALL of my own auto repairs. Enough said.
