I'll definately let you know what I find. I just got back home and ran out of time tonight. I think the pump is ok, because I have good pressure, but I'm going to disassemble it anyway.

Dont take this the wrong way, but judging what you have posted in your last post, i dont think you should be assembling engines clearly there are some things you don't understand. Which is fine, we all start somewhere, but i think your in over your head and should have someone else with more experience lend a hand in the next rebuild.
Yes, when I get around to it. What is wrong about my above post? That excessive blowby can't ruin bearings?

We'll you're certainly entitled to your own opinion. I've rebuilt engines ranging from dirt bikes, atvs and now I'm trying this RB30. I also had this engine running for two seasons with an absolute thrashing on it last season filled with racing... After I rebuilt it myself. I'm also a mechanical engineer who designs downhole oilfield tools for a living. The application of the concepts of tolerances and clearances in the thousandths is what I get paid to do. So I strongly disagree with you when you say I'm in over my head. But yes I'm still learning about building engines.
When I get the engine apart, I'll take some pics of my findings and then maybe you can help me out with anything you see.
