Thinking about goe mageeing something up to the oil sensor hole and running preshureized oil to check flow. What do you think, just might work or not?

I'm not familure with your crow realise hatch or pondering wrench hole. What are you talking about? Draw me a diagram, I need visual conformation.

AS to my term "Joe Megge", I was refering to rigging something up to work in away you might not see done in a shop.

My problem is a rod bearing fried. I suspect it is due to a lack of oil to one lobe of the crank. That oil is suplied through the crank and surfaces through a hole in the jurnal. My pan is off and so is the head. I know that oil was getting to the other jurnal and also to the rocker arm asembly. I am suspicious of the problem area because of the fried bearing and the fact that I ran a wire up the suply hole and it came out dry. AS to my term "Joe Megge", I was refering to rigging something up to work in away you might not see done in a shop. The oil pressure sensor is mounted on the side of the block, the hole is threaded, and it is near the leavle of the crank. It seems reasonable to me, that if I remove the sensor and screw in a fitting that I can hook up some tubing to and run oil through the lower end of the oil track, I could find out if the passege way was clear to the crank jurnal in question. My question to you guys was " good idea, bad idea?". I do not think there would be any problems created by doing this, just thought I would check. Sorry about my spelling, I meant Bad not dad and joe not goe.
