Engine won't prime...please help.
I've completely overhauled my 350. I just put it back together and can't get it to prime. Oil just seems to ooze (not flow) out of the top of 5 of the 16 rockers. I know there's pressure (as I forgot to put my finger over the hole where my mechanical oil pressure guage goes = Fountain o' Valvoline ) I only have one rocker on the right side that is getting oil. I have no idea what the deal is. I've probably spent the better part of ten minutes at any given session turning my drill. I've even enlisted the help of my wife (who doesn't care to get greasy) to hold the drill as I spin the crank.
I've rebuilt a couple of different motors and haven't had anything like this happen. I was hoping someone has seen this before. This is just one of many mild irritants. Thanks.
