    Thanks for the pic. I'll run it to the block as shown. But I agree it won't help the oil pressure. or is there a good reason they went to the govenor?

    Oil Pressure

    Yep it's what it does. I've not seen this before either. But, who knows what some users do when they try to fix things. The govenor does not have a oil inlet. Do I need to install one and run the oil line there? The casting on the block shows B116 which I think means a Feb 11, 1946 engine...

    8N won't start (I see alot of these headings)

    I see (profile) & (pm) but no (email) for you in the lower left corner. On mine and some others I see all three. I made a tool to hold the tappet holes and grind down a wrench to slip in the gap. #1 exhust was open about a 1/8 inch when it should have been closed. I guess that solved some...

    8N won't start (I see alot of these headings)

    I followed JMOR's reply and photo of timing marks. Reset the cam mark to the crankshaft mark. Saw that all four pistons were at half stroke. #1 & #4 valves were closed. (after I adjusted all tappets, #1 exhust was way out of wack - open 1/8" when it should have been closed) Set flywheel...
