Re: [Chrysler300] Chrysler 300 Hurst oil pressure

[Mike Apfelbeck <moparmike@xxxx>]

I should have added that, since the oil pump is so accessible, one should 
take it off any newly acquired high mileage "B"motor and inspect the gear 
and rotor for damage. Metal particles, bits of cooked valve seals and 
carbon particles will be down in the oil pan on an older motor and some of 
it will eventually find its way past the pickup screen. May not be 
necessary but it's nice to know what you've got, once you get it home.
