I have a motor in my Scorp with about 4000 miles on it. Before I got it my son pulled the carb to replace it with duel carbs and never finished. So the car sat for 15 years. I have replaced the timing belt, water pump, idler pully and a bunch more. Got the carbs all hooked up and pulled the plugs to spin the motor to get oil pressure. Well, I can't get any oil pressure. Also the new filter was dry. So I assume the pump lost its prime. So is the only solution to pull the pan and pump. Prime the pump and then reassemble it?
