HELP!!!!!
Well I pulled my motor because I was having low oil pressure problems on my rebuilt block. SO I used the plastiguage to check my clearance today and all of the measured .003 execpt one that was .002 (the #3 cap). The chiltons says my clearce shoudl be
-.0004 to .0021 so there is too much clearance right? IS that my reason for low oil pressure? I had the crank miced and they said it was in factory specs, and I ordered stock sized bearings. What do I do next? Thanks, I am terrible with math I and this is my first time. Any help is appreciated. Thanks again!!! ------------------ |
whats the pressure read at idle and with some throttle?
|
like maybe 3-5 at idle and 10 at 3000g's

What kind of gauge are you using?

Autometer mechanical, I am sure its not the guage.

Replace the bearings with a set of .002" undersize bearings. You have way too much clearance.
