Well boy & girls. The 79 got aftermarket gauges installed this afternoon (after storm had setteled). Oil pressure on a cold motor might hit 30lbs to be high. After it warms up, needle rest's on 0.............
I'm really leaning towards a weak oil pump, or maybe a clogged pick-up tube. Bought a new pume, and oil pan gaskets. See when I can get them installed now. Hopefully weather won't suck next week. I'm off four day's. Yes In know.... I can feel you're pitty.
