Changing oil pumps suck

[OrangeMustangGt]

I am really pissed of having to do this.

My car was reading 0 psi at idle and it would jump up to 25 when i gave it gas.....
you could hear the change in the lifters so i know something was up.

SO, i replaced my oil pump with another.....both are melling high volume.

I think i found my problem, there was a large peice of paper towl in the oil pickup!!! i dont think i did it....but who knows.

It really sucks to change it with the engine in the car.

Im halfway through.....and need to vent!


ARGGGGGG!!!!!!

nope....its done.

Once you take the oil pump and pickup out and losen up the steering rack you can actually pull the oil pan out.....This is with the engine lifted as high as it will go
