Oil was 10-40
Oil Filter was a basic FRAM filter, Ring Oiled and installed correctly
I'm tackling the Oil Pump change over this weekend If I get time, I'll update if it fixes the problems
Could the fact that its a original 68' oil pump/relief valve have anything to do with it?
The car sat for 10+ years as well.
I'm running a oil treatment through it before I do the Oil Pump change out, hopefully that will break some crud free
I'm aware of where the Oil pump is located. LOL Thanks
I was Unaware of the Oil Pressure Relief valve.
Looks like the New Pump comes with one already installed so I'm good to go.
I'm new to motor repair so THANKS FOR YOUR HELP EVERYBODY!

After a few returns to the auto store I got a 180 that...
Alright. Changed the Water Pump, Have a Working Thermostat in it.
DIDNT HELP! :wack:
I believe its the Radiator.
After Installing the new pump, Re-Filling up the Rad, Starting up the car I had No Flow or ANY of the radiator fluid level drop (to make up for the fluid I lost)
Thanks for you...
In 2004 my Grandfather bestowed upon me the car I always begged for and admired when I was a kid. This was his Car and belonged to his sister prior to that.
Being a teenager and poor choices led to it being parked from 2005-2011 and Not started.
After my Grandpa died in 2009 I felt compelled...
