Re: [Chevelle-list] Oil Flow In Rockers?

Yes you should see oil coming out of the little hole at the pushrod seat on the rocker arm.  If you don't have the rockers in place and adjusted, the oil is probably leaking out where the pushrod sits in the lifter.  Also make sure you're spinning the oil pump in the right direction - small & big block Chevy distributors spin clockwise.   Herb Lumpp http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/index.htm -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Dennis McGillis Sent: Saturday, March 04, 2006 12:58 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: [Chevelle-list] Oil Flow In Rockers? I'm spinning the oil pump in anticipation of starting my new 350 and there is no sign of oil flow in the rocker arm area.  Shouldn't oil come out of the top of the pushrods?
