New oil pump.

Hi to all,

Having found bought and fitted a nice new oil pump which has improved the pressure at both crank=shaft and cam=shaft putting out that oil pressure light in around two seconds is great, but it come with a greater risk of leaks on an old high mileage engine such as mine, mainly that of oil leaks at any weak point be it gasket or seal so many have been replaced.
But a new one appeared on a twenty mile drive on Monday so yesterday another short journey with the engine cover off and slow to appear but appear it did from the base of the distributor oil pump joint in-spite of new gaskets having been fitted, so I am putting this down to the increased oil pressure of that new oil pump.
