This is going to sound mad but I lost all oil pressure and, after checking all the obvious stuff, took the oil pump off and found metal beneath the gears at the bottom of the pump. I then took the pump relief apart and found only a spring and no ball. There is only a depression for the ball to sit in at the end of the tube.
The metal in the pump seems to be the ball and the plunger.
Is this correct or is the spring side of the plunger also a ball shaped depression?
I took it apart with a witness and I swear this is true. The vehicle is a series 3, 1979, 2.25 diesel.
