Well took out the cooler lines, that did give me a little more pressure 50 psi at start op. falling as watertemps rise
I do feel waterttemp rises very fast even as the thermostats opens quite early temps do op to 212 F just idling and rising at driving
Oil pressure down to 15 psi.
Fan clutch seems to work ( although I know nothing about them)
I turned the fan after I stopped the engine and it had alot of resistence. will try again when it is cold
I could feel a bit of movment in the fan bearing but do not know how crusial that is.
I have had a waterpump seize on me, but could a waterpump just work badly ?
Engine starts fine and revs fine ( standstil) and oilpressure rises with revs.
Have not yet been on the road to realy heat up the engine
I will go out now and have a look at that timing chain
