Hey guys I am not a regular on
but i am an avid XJ fan in need of some major help. I have spent the last 2 days trying to get the reman in my 96 XJ running and running right. After much fooling with the timing i finally got it to start and idle. But after idling for only a minuet or so it starts to squeal and stalls out. i pulled the belt and checked all my pulleys and found that the alternator was in rougher shape than i remembered so i replaced it and tried again. Same thing starts great runs great for 60 seconds then starts to bog down and stalls. Watched the oil pressure and it is not reading anything at all. So i pulled out the sending unit and it was bone dry not even a drop of oil on it or the adapter it screws into. i haven't pulled the filter yet but i am assuming that it will be the same. Oil pump is new, came with the reman, but could it be bad? How can i test the oil pump? what else can i check? any an all help is welcome
