Rod bearings scored?

it is unlikely a stock pickup in a stock pan will be so far from the pan that it runs out of oil. check it anyway, in case of some crazy mismatched parts. sucking the pan dry can more likely occur when we are running a hi volume pump in a 5 quart pan for an extended blast and are a quart low


I've had them come in at 3/8 off the floor and they complained it was sucking the pan dry. It's not hard to figure out with 5 quarts in the system and the pick up that far off the floor it's leaving at least a quart and a half in the pan.


A high volume pump can't suck the pan dry. I wish that lie would die off.
