Hi Don!
Do you happen to know where it came from, or the name of it?

Thanks!

  My TR8 was fitted with an electric pre-oiler by the prior owner.  Since the
car sat for long periods between uses, it seemed like a good way to prevent
engine wear on start-up.

  Hi everyone -
  I'm posting a lot these days.  Not surprising really - since the wife sent
me
  to my room for bad behavior.

  My new friend Julian told me about a problem he was having with his Rover
V8
  engine not producing oil pressure because the oil pump was draining.
Despite
  the fact that the email below suggests that the problem goes away if he
starts
  the engine weekly, the situation is getting worse.

  Are there any RV8 or Buick V8 guys who can help out?  Julian says he has
  checked the pump and it appears to be in spec.....

  Thanks!

  Wayne
