Re: The '64 Buick Riviera 4.1L LC2 Turbo6 run by L67 3800 EFI System
Started and ran fine but still no pressure on the gauge for the oil. Since I'm running this solo I can't be in both places while I run it with the primer which delivers a known 50psi of oil. Need to recruit some help for that one. Also the fan came on when I grounded the supposed switched 12V relay power. It definitely sounded less tappety today but I had run almost 1.5gal worth of oil through the primer and into the engine through the main feed port. My only thought is that the anti drainback on the filter was closing and preventing the primer from pushing it up to the pump.
First go, it starts right at the end of the video as the camera cuts off:
Second try where she hydrolocked on me:
Today's start and run. Not the best idle but she did stumble and recover on her own. Unfortunately still no oil pressure and I accidentally recorded over the datalog:
