- I have the exact same problem with my B... 30 seconds or so before oil pressure starts moving up when cold. I just finished a rebuild. I don't think the oil pump is the problem, since 1) I assume yo

- It doesn't matter whether there is air in the line or not, since it is a pressure that is being transmitted to the gauge, my mini always has air in the gauge, but comes on straight away. Giles

- I don't know anything about air in the lines, but the oil pressure sensor on my '64 B goes up immediately just turning the engine over. I don't remember seeing, or reading about a valve of sorts on

- I'm pretty certain the oil filter on a '64 is of a different design than a '73 with oil cooler. I use a spin-on filter which screws DOWN onto the seat, while it looks as if the original filter (witho

- Any decent filter should contain an anti-drainback valve to prevent this problem. I have heard that the standard Fram-type filter is a bit lax in this department (I have no hard facts); I suggest you
