We purchased a 301 out of an 806 from a tractor jockey who was planning to put a 361 in it. The guy didn't know much history on the tractor or the engine. It appears that the engine was recently dipped and presumably gone over, but we haven't gone inside yet. We just got it in the tractor this week and started it up, and it has less than 5 lbs of oil pressure... If it was tore down and reassembled, is there something like a plug that could have been missed when reassembled that we should look for? We checked the regulator, and all seems in check. We have another oil pump to try on it and while the pan is off we'll take a look at the bearings, but it doesn't sound like it has any bottom end knock when it runs so we're hoping that's not the problem......
