[Mgs] A Bad Day with the MGB engine

[Ed Woods]

Gentlemen and Ladies,

Well, almost two years to the day after pulling the 18V engine for rebuilding,
I cranked it on the starter today, plugs removed, to prime the oil system.
After approximately 2 minutes of operation, still no oil at the flex line to
the pressure gauge or at the oil filter base.

Yes, it has sufficient oil.

I recall a list discussion of different oil pump gaskets. Is that where I need
to look at this point or are there other possiblilities not involving dropping
the pan?

TIA,

Ed Woods
