Offcourse i probaly killed my bearings since got no oilpressure on startup... But why is my real question. All was buildt up with assembly lube, including the oilpump, i had a dodgey oilpressure gauge, so kind of hoped it was that. It was showing no pressure, but had some spikes to about 6-7bar when revved it allitle just to try to get the oilpump to suck up oil, but fall straight to zero again. Ended up removing dizzy (4x4, so thats basickly why i didnt run pump with drill before startup, since hell to get to the bolt) first thing i didnt like, was the drive was stuck too dizzy, but ran the pump with drill and needed to rev it some before it started to flow, but then more problems seemed to show it self. It started to flow okayish, but inbeetween it got heavy "spots" and pressure on gauge jumped to 10bar before falling down to more normal again, this happened a few times but seemed to become stable after run the pump some... I put everything back togheter, and started it and let it run hot, oilpressure semed to stay fairly stable 3.5bar on allitle rev, 2bar at "high" idle about 1000rpm , but again it suddenly had some spikes with very high pressure, and the engine sounded diffrent to when this happend, so something going on.... and then changed oil and filter, its allitle "metallic" in oil but not in my eys extremly much, an when opened the oilfilter, it was some metal, but not "enough" to clearly say its a bearing that gone... Offcourse a 4x4, so its not a drop the sump in 15min job, but it will need to come down so can check the bearings...
But the spikes and unstable pressure is coming from pump or something, rather then bearings, so thats what i need to find the rrason for, just hope i dont need to remove the engine again.
