Remove the oil filter assy. Then spin the engine over with the plugs =
removed. If there is oil then your problem is most likley in the filter =
assy. If no oil then pull the oil pan and inspect the pump.

If  you are using a spin on filter the adaptor can be installed upside =
down and the oil will not flow thru the filter.

Bob--

You don't say if you put in a new oil pump or checked the old one for
clearances, etc.  In any case, assuming the pump is functional it is
sometimes recommended to pack it with vaseline or light grease to help it
reprime, though I have never had to do this.

At this point I would recommend that before going to the trouble of pulling
the sump and doing that that you loosen the filter canister nut or back off
the spin-on a few turns to lessen resistance and--after first putting some
rags around the filter--spin the engine over with plugs disconnected.  Oil
pressure should quickly come up and then you can clean up the mess.

Best--Michael Oritt

How long did you spin it? Did you prefill your oil pump? If you have an
aftermarket spin on filter bracket, did you install it correctly so as not
to block the holes?

Have you fitted a spin-on oil filter conversion?

These can be fitted upside down which will block off the holes and result in
no oil pressure

Subject: [Healeys] No oil pressure BJ8

Last year I pulled the engine, had it machined, new bearings etc.  Got it
back in the engine compartment, and assembled the mufflers, carbs, and added
oils. So I could start the engine.  As per Kees recommendation removed the
spark plugs and spun the engine to check oil pressure.  Gauge did not budge.
Removed the new flexible hose from the engine to the pressure gauge, spun
the engine, no oil coming from the engine.  Ideas what to do now?
