Thanks, maybe by the weekend, I'll have some kind of corporate resolution that I can work off of. Over on the rat.net, Jojje told me that the oil pump gears are made out of nylon, probably as a weight and cost measture. If the gears are the culprit, I'll be strongly tempted to order new gears, and then in turn hand them over to a machine shop in order for them to duplicate the gears using billet.
