Well it’s been a bit, lots of struggles and endless research on how too and tons for torque specs (too many to mention. 1 new part/tool after another.
Creative in a few ways to Torque the Harmonic balancer to #240 and some more suggestive ways. Built a platform to keep wrench in place, still a biscuit.
Installed new oil pump and water pump, finally got it all installed, new oil/filter. All new gaskets and seals.
Ran great for ~ 2 miles and back to same old crap. Back to Very low oil pressure and beginning to get hot.
So, now I’ll try a compression check suspecting other and bigger problems.
