Cokekid Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 When I was dismantling the engine I took a lots of photos of each part I removed I saved them to a external Jump Drive. I am now starting to install these parts and now find out I am unable to review these photos. I will attach a photo of each part as I am installing it hoping someone has a picture of this part. The first one is on the rear of the engine were there are three holes, and if my memory serves me there were brass connectors which I believe are for the oil lines.

38ShortopConv. Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) Yes the vertical hole feeds oil to oil gauge sender unit, the hole directly below supplies oil to input of oil filter usually at bottom thru internal restrictor. The third hole to the left supplies oil to hydraulic lifters from outlet on side of oil filter. Usually all steel pipe and brass fittings. Looks like those threads could do with a clean out.

19tom40 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Those fittings are pipe thread, so be careful when cleaning them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cokekid Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 I will be asking more questions on were parts and connections are to be made as I continue to install this engine. My question this time is after installing the fuel line I am not sure as to were it is to be routed to be joined to the fuel pump. Photos would be appreciated.

Cokekid Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 19tom40 I started to install the oil bath and ran across a problem. From what I can remember I originally had only removed two Oil Lines. The first photo shows were they were connected. I was totally confused until I went to the engine I had just removed and noticed one of the holes had had a plug in it. I went back to the photo you posted, explaining were each connections are to be made and now I am now stumped. There are only two connection on the Oil Bath and a drain plug on the bottom. All comments welcomed. Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38ShortopConv. Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Gerry, No problem. Connect the top pipe from the oil gauge sender into top hole on bellhousing. Connect the bottom pipe to the lower hole on bellhousing. Plug middle hole on bellhousing. Roy Edited December 7, 2020 by 38ShortopConv.

Cokekid Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 38ShortopConv You have set my mind at ease. I thought for sure there was going to be a bigger problem. Will be installing the bath tomorrow, Thanks for the quick reply. Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
