I recently completed a complete top end/ timing service on my Monty Sport 3.5L.
In my continuing OCD service I elected to do a compression test to compare before and after numbers. Currently the numbers are hovering around 130psi.
I placed a manual oil pressure gauge on the engine and during the testing process I never got oil pressure... whatsoever.
Yes , there is fresh oil in the crankcase. So, , do I need to prime the oil pump somehow or continue cranking?
The last thing I need at this point are fried engine bearings .
Any information is greatly appreciated.
Have a great Veterans Day. G.
