well then his best bet is to just pull the motor.
i know it is something you do not want to hear.
but if damage is done, you really need to see just
what kind of damage has been done.
the oil pump may not be the only thing that needs to be replaced.

 

crossmember is off.it seems like the motor mount is my only way now. it is my daily driver and i dont have another car. thanks alot shannon for all the help!!

 

I AM LIKE WAY LOST ON THIS ONE.... THE PAN SHOULD HAVE SOME OFF WAY EASIER...

IF YOU HAVE A HOIST MAYBE YOU CAN LIFT THE ENGINE SOME AND SEE IF YOU CAN PERSUADE IT TO COME OFF THEN.... I JUST HOPE ONCE ITS ALL DONE YOUR BEARINGS SURVIVED THE ORDEAL..... ONE GOOD THING FOR YOU IS YOU WERE USING SYNTHETIC...

 

well didnt get much done today...had alot on my mind(girlfriend probs) but stilll stuck.
i just wanna light it on fire and let it go....

 

i dont suppose anyone has a stock engine lying around they would like to donate so he could drive while trying to get his motor figured out??


hell if i had the money and time off i would go out and help him fix it.... but im worse than broke right now

 

sorry to hear about your girlfriend problems.... i know how that goes... im getting married...... dont let it get you down bro

 

finally got the damn pan off found some more rag. now i need to get a gasket and put it back together

 

truck is put together going to get fluids and then start it and hope for the best

ummm.. it went like this starts and run but no oil. oil filter is dry. battery dies. then motor will not turn over at all pushrod are not moving crank is not moving. NOTHING!!!
