    Why are you replacing it?

    i had a bunch of low oil pressure porblems and I have fixed them all with simple stuff.

    As for the oil pump on my 85 camaro i jacked up the car, put it on stands, got some boards, put them under a jack and used the jack to jackup the motor, i unhooked the motor mounts, and tranny mount, I unbolted the oil pan and managed to wiggle it out, then i had full access to the entire bottom of the motor, rods and everything.

      yea that is what i plan on doing at idle i have no oil pressure and my oil pressure fluctuates with my throttle and at 4k rpms it will get at the half way point normally where it is supposed to be anyone know of anything else that could cause this?

        Matt, what are the chances that this could be related tp the sending unit problems that you were having a few months ago? I would go that route before spending all that time putting in a new oil pump.
