Just finished installing a Insta-Lube pre-oiler on my '05 Eddie B with the 4.0 SOHC today. Thought it was working fine, but I noticed a few hours later, that if it sits for longer than 30 minutes the pressure must bleed off in the system somehow because when you turn the key to prime it nothing happens, no pressure. After you start it, get pressure, then turn it off and key on to prime it, it works, after sitting about 30 minutes or so, nothing. There are no oil leaks I can find. Any ideas?
 






Never mind, I seem to have found a possible solution.
 






I want to give a Special Thanks to DonaldS & Jess for all the help they provided on helping me with this problem. I never would have whipped it without them. Talk about going above and beyond!!!!!
