umm, do you have enough oil in there? are you running the correct weight? i never have a problem with my 96. add 1\4 quart. see if it helps.

the trays in the oil pan i belive are supppost to keep the oil from sloshing all to one side and running the pump dry for a few seconds...... i dont know if you want to edit them in any way.

i havnt personally looked at the oil pump on my car, could the pick up be clogged or loose?

do other single cam owners have this problem?
