FYI.... Unless you have an HPX line, the oil rails in the heads are not connected in any way. So all you need to do is put the gauge in each oil rail and check pressure. If you do have an HPX line, all you need to do is remove that and check pressure on each rail.. to check pressure just from the pump, you'll need to connect the HPOP line to the gauge.

If you have 125psi in each oil rail without an HPX line, there's a pretty slim chance injector o-rings are causing the problem. That would mean that one, you'd have to have a leak on each bank that happens to be leaking the same amount on each side. Possible, but I've yet to see that happen.

I have not looked at the truck in almost a month. Too darn busy....LOL

I have all the fittings required to block off 1HPOP line so I can test the HPOP at the other one. I am thinking a bad HPOP at this time, but I will confirm soon.

In this case busy is good. The business is booming again. It has been slow since 2009 so I am really excited.

Well then, stay busy, LOL. I hope your right about the hpop, you'll need a T500 anyway. Speaking of Joey's hpop's, has anybody heard about the T1000??
