With all the work you had done I would remove the oil pan and check to see
if the oil pump pickup screen got crap in it from taking the engine apart.

Help!!!

Hi all

anyone had this problem?

I have a twin engine searay
with 454's


I just hand the heads , valve's, new rocker arms, and valve springs
done in the one engine

I ran the boat at the dock for a good 8 house with no issues. I even
changed the oil several times just to be sure


I took the boat out last night and after running under load for about
15 minutes the engine in question started to lose oil pressure.

At once I shut the motor down.

I got back to the dock expecting to see oil sprayed all over my engine
compartment, but I found nothing, no leaks drips or any sigh of oil
leakage

Checked the dip stick and it was fill and very clean.

well I got back to my slip and took a look at the oil filer , it
seemed to have some stuff in it as I assumed that it would, so I
changed it, and re started the motor.

As the filter filled the oil pressure gauge jumped up, but not as high
as it should.


Anyone got any thoughts ?

on why all of a sudden I got no oil pressure?

Thanks
M
