It’s not a rebuild the only major thing that I have done is replace oil pressure sending unit and the front cover gasket because of a leak. I will try the pump primer. Thank you!Is this a recently rebuilt engine or one that’s ran before? Grab yourself a sbf oil pump primer and use it in the distributor hole. Make sure you spin the drill in reverse.
Oil pumps almost never fail. If you’re getting no oil, maybe the oil pump driveshaft is broken, or a gallery plug is left out.
Yes, the extension was very clean.Have you removed the extension and checked for blockage?
I ordered the 27062 5/16 earlier today. Looks like I’ll be returning that one. Thanks for picture!I'd try this. You should see pressure on the guage if you spin it with a drill on high

So I tried this tool. No pressure on the gauge. However, I’m installing a turbo and did for the first time get oil through the line at the turbo. When I run the engine the line does not get oil though. When priming I used an electric Milwaukee drill rated at 900 Rpm. When I ran the engine I didn’t get much above 1000 on the tach. So not sure what my next step is. Any ideas?I'd try this. You should see pressure on the guage if you spin it with a drill on high

I hear you! I didn’t bring that small detail up in the previous post because I wasn’t getting oil to the sending unit. Didn’t think a 1 inch adapter would lose all oil pressure on the gauge.Well might as well try twin turboswhat else do you do when you're not sure about your oil pressure
I don't mean to be critical but seriously?
Unless I'm missing something, which is entirely possible.
That's where I would go........Well I would pull a valve cover, empty the oil filter or put a new one on then start it up, see if the rockers are getting oil and the filter fills up.
Took a while but checked the filter and it is filling. I also pulled a valve cover and I am getting oil in the rockers. I had to pull the intake and found that the PCV valve is leaking. Oil all over the place on the back side of the engine. Is it possible that this leak is large enough to reduce the crankcase pressure and not push oil to the sending unit?That's where I would go........
I did prime it about two weeks ago and the oil flowed but no pressure on the gauge. I have also replaced the sending unit. The oil is not flowing into the extension and I have pulled it off to check if blocked and it was clear.The oil pump pickup tube might just be plugged. ( from the silicone pan gasket deteriorating )
Real common on Ranger
I use old gutted distributors for priming
Get a billet oil pump drive
