Default Re: Break-in gone wrong!

Oil pump clearances.

Between gear faces and cap without gasket - 0.0015
Gasket thickness - 0.0065

Total clearance = about 0.008

Ya, plenty of clearance, but I'm not sure how to make it better.

Apparently it lost prime and I saw it before it reprimed? It looks like a careful assembly is in my engines future?.
