    OIL PUMP SEIZES, BREAKING OIL PUMP SHAFT

    I agree with the tear down and inspect, there must be some damage/ wear going on. i would additionally suggest replacing the pick up tube if you haven't already done so. based on the crud you described in the screen it could well still have some debris lodged in the tube gtss

    Alignment finally close to specs

    perhaps I am reading your numbers wrong, but 1/8 " ??? toe on each side, by my math would equal 1/4" total toe in, that sounds quite high to me and excessive toe in can lead to darting and wandering also I forget what mine is set to but a total of 1/8 would probably be more like it gtss
