Hello folks, great forum! I am two weeks into owning a beautiful Custom Cobra and loving it! Tight car and power unlike anything I have ever encountered.
Took her in for an
oil change as only 350 miles on the rebuild but the car has sat for five years with only occasional sart-ups and the
oil was 2 years old.
The mechanic took her for a test drive after the
oil and brake-fluid and coolant was changed and noticed no oil pressure on the guage! Had it towed back to the shop!
Changed the filtre in case it had been faulty ... still no pressure! Tried their own guage and no pressure. Oil filtre remained cold and the transparant oil tube to the guage showed no flow.
Tommorow they try to operate the oil pump through the distributer, maybe the drive shaft has broken from the distributer to the pump. maybe the pick-up tube from the oil pan has fallen off, maybe the oil pump quit for some reason??????
Have any of you had this happen?
Thanks!
