Big Red 200 oil pump
Hello,
I'm having a problem with my big red. For some odd reason, I'm not getting any oil pumping to the head. As a result, I keep seizing a cam bearing to the cam. I followed the manual when installing everything. I made sure I didn't add any gasket sealer near the cam bearing etc.. Two things I'm not sure of. 1) I sprayed some brake cleaner in the little hole behind the cam bearing but it didn't appear to go down to the bottom of the engine. Is that right? 2) I also put in the oil rubber plug in the head as instructed in the manual. Would this cause it.? Only other thing is maybe when I did the clutch plates I messed up the oil pump somehow. All I know is use assembly lube when putting in the cam, and squirt some oil in the journal. It will Run awesome for like 20mins then sieze. Any help would be great on how to make sure it pumps oil to the top before I wreck a 3rd cam
