Re: some people -- update to rubbing fuel pump eccentric



Normally, yes. However, if he uses Fram (the worst name-brand filter), or if the bypass valve allowed oil to, uh... Bypass, he could have a problem. That said, the issue occurred many RPM ago, so it's largely moot.

Neal please take the pan off it is a pain but easier than a rebuild. that stuff will go through the pump and like sand paper wear it out and the bearings. If your chevy guy cant put on a tc who knows what else is wrong you may catch with the pan off. If you do pull it off a oil pump is cheap you might just replace it , cheap insurance.  Not to mention contaminated oil on the cylinder will ruin them and the rings, goodbye seal, hello smoker.

OK, thought u guys might find this interesting. I posted yesterday about the curious shallow circle scratched on inside of my 360 timing case. I immediately knew it had something to do with fuel pump eccentric. But it was too late. I was tired  This morning i figured it out. In short, whoever put the  motor together was an idiot.  You could stand over motor and look down and see that the forward edge of eccentric was not parallel to front of block, but slightly askew.  That gave just enough extra reach for it to reach forward and hit inside of case.
I couldn't figure it out until I took off the eccentric to find they had not seated the  slot in the eccentric down over key in cam!!. They just bolted it down any old place.!! They tightened that bolt down so tight it distorted the little cup-like washer the bolt goes through. just smooshed it down. And in tightening it like this they smooshed out the key too. When i went to remove cam gear it wouldn't come.   I tried harder with a bar, and the cam gear just snapped This is when i realized the key was smashed out and preventing  the gear from sliding off cam . So I took a punch and hammer and attempted to re-shape the key, which worked, the broken hub then came off.
  How somebody could not notice a key and a slot is beyond me.
  So I need a new key and a new timing set. Yes I know there is the scary issue of where did the metal go to?? Well I guess I will just hope it's in the bottom of the pan and will stay there as I am in no position to do a rebuild. It had good oil pressure when I last had it on the road.
   PS The timing gear was set up correctly, but if I hadn't checked I would never have  known about this
