URGENT oil pressure stop engine

[doylebros]

Recheck it cause it will not need two?

When tightening those types of housing just a little on each bolt or the result is what you got.

@doylebros item 2 looks like it sits inbetween the cam chain cover and the vacuum pump like how ive installed it.

Also, I first thought the vacuum pump was missing a bolt when I had removed the cam chain cover, but it wasnt, the reason is because the bolt that goes there actually hold the wire loom bracket as well, so htis bolt was stored with the bracket if that makes sense

Just has one o-ring where it sits in the groove.

Looks like the vac pump is cracked too.   The pressure of trying to fit another o-ring would have caused stress on it.

I have a few vac pumps here with o-ring so don't fit another.

@vRSAlex I have already put it back together. I only have the pcv and battery to put back on and I really want to turn it on to see if its fixed my timing problem.

Would it be ok to do this, just to log the timing, and then I wont drive it, ill buy a vacuum off you, then fit that when it arrives?

[doylebros]

Take the extra oring out and fit the new oring in the groove where it's meant to be.
If you run it you'll suffer from oil leaks most likely but it's vacuum leaks wil cause misfire issues etc - Rather than rushing recheck all your work or you'll end up with more problems then start it.

[Pesky jones]

Ok. Do you know the cam chain cover needs to come off to take the vacuum pump off or can I do it in situ. I think I can from memory but not looking at it right now

[doylebros]

In situ just tricky.

[Pesky jones]

Any tips @doylebros about to do it now, is it within my capabilites haha

[doylebros]

Battery tray out and a good light, you've got the tools the last thing is patients.

When your ready for testing "Don't forget turn the engine over by hand two full turns" before going anywhere near that key.

[Pesky jones]

Done, rotated engine at crankshaft twice and its all good. Battery in then im firing her up?

[doylebros]

Awaiting - watch for fuel leaks

[Pesky jones]

Shes running nicely!!!! Been five minutes now and no horrible noises. Sounded like jow sje used to!! Wil upload a video soon. Very excited right now. About to do some logging fingers crossed

[doylebros]

I wouldn't worry about logs get checking for oil leaks !
