[T3] No oil pressure

[[[Well, it started fine but there was no oil pressure.]]]

 

I'm not a seasoned engine rebuilder like many on this list, but I have to
ask; why would you even try to run the engine when you knew you had no oil
pressure? That sounds like machine shop blasphemy to me!

I read where you leave the spark plugs and coil wire out and then crank the
motor over (in few-second spurts) until oil pressure built up - only then
you could install the plugs and coil wire and start the engine.
