Got a mock up 304/4l60e that has not run in 15 maybe 20 years tempted to try to get it started but first want to get oil pressure guessing it's drained dry by now lol.
Would like to prime engine & turn it over buy hand to see if it will get oil pressure.
Wondering if pressurised weed sprayer down oil sender will do the trick or if remote filter base is better way to do do pump oil through one of the adaptor lines?
Searching around found this nifty clip where someone reverse oil pump drive gear opposite way outside flat plate so it could be spun with a drill.
What other diy tricks for oil pressure been done on non running 304/308?
Keen to see if can get a neglected efi 304 running again.
Oil Priming 304/308?
