Pics of the oil pump cover. This is an original item!!
You can see where the pen tip is pointed that there is a gap to the spring area of the plunger. It isnt seated all the way as I found it needed a cleanout in the seat area, but when fully seated, this area is fully open to the spring. From a hydraulic point of view, this would be to allow the spring to operate on a differential pressure, not fully loaded on the plunger head. This will stop it from pulsing.
None the less, this is why the gears drain when the plug is taken out.
Thankyou to all for the advice!

Did it with vaso. The missus looked at me VERY oddly when I walked out of the house and down to the shed with my manuals and a jar of Vaso in my hands! Think the comment was something like "so who do you think of then, me or that car...?"Originally Posted by rangieman

Gave the gallery into the block a half tube of Nulon L90 assembly lube as well. Cranked it on the starter for about 15 seconds before the light went out and kept going until i got a reading on the guage. Cranked it up and all was well. Think the lifters liked a dose of the assembly lube though, it seems quieter and actually feels like it has a bit more power now.... go figure.......
