eshack93 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 And what about this brass bushing inside this gear? Is it supposed to be one long piece? I’ve got one small piece and one big piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I know this sounds retarded but are you sure you’re putting enough oil in it my 350 held 14 gallons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) My Motor manual only covers up to 83 Edited May 10, 2022 by mowerman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eshack93 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 This trucks a 79. It’s always held about 9 gallons which is what it’s got in it. It’s full on the dipstick which hasn’t been changed or anything. What’s the proper oil amount for a 283 e6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eshack93 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I’ve got a 79 rs686 with the 283. It has 3 oil filters. How would I tell if it has the oversized pan or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would I tell if it has the oversized pan or not? deep pan holds 53 litres / quarts or so standard pan is 32 ! if you have 3 filters it should have the 53 liter pan how ever it may have been changed! The deep pan is aprox 10 -12 inches the standard is around eight inches both of these are estimates never measured them how ever there is a big difference side by side! Check for scratches on the tips of the gears and the inside of the housing the oil is carried round the out side if its scrffed up change the pump and i don't like the look of that releif valve!

eshack93 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Checked the pump for scratches it’s all pretty clean the teeth all look to be in good shape. I polished the pressure valve with 1500 grit sandpaper and got it baby smooth. My oil pan is 9 inches in the deep part of it towards the bell housing.

mowerman Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Sorry this is all I can give you I’m kind of surprised it doesn’t give you an explosion version of the oil pump… bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Well from what he saying it’s just the idle pressure is the problem but I don’t know why his oil filters are not full But yes I agree A new oil pump is certainly not going to hurt it especially the two piece for bushing I don’t know what’s up with that According to the explosion version I don’t see a two piece bushing I can appreciate it but nobody likes to spend money especially if you don’t have it but for a work Ride it needs to be right… Bob 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 And let’s face it the oil pump is the heart of the operation and you certainly don’t want it to completely fail while in operation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I used to do a lot of car automatic transmissions and I always made sure I would rebuild the front and rear pump that’s not that much more I’m sure I’ll be doing more of them after retirement very good profit will rebuilding I am sure you know that yourself Joey $$$$$$$$ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I think it was a slip of the tongue I meant to say front pump and front and rear servo rebuild Joey you’re like so cool not sure if I mentioned it I got cut today on account of heavy snow on Donner Pass they canceled my run that’s why I’ve been on here quite a bit I didn’t want to work anyway… bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
