Well sat. i let my father-n-law drive my camaro down the road and back. he missed 3rd and went to 1st well it didnt seem to hurt anything other than his pride. he cam back and parked the car. then yesterday i was working on my drivers door and had my radio on while doing so. Then when i got done i started the car to charge the battery back up. after about 1min i herd the lifters chatter i instanly looked and no oil pressure so i shut it off. I am hoping that the it was the plastic collar on the oil pump shaft that broke and not the pump! My question is can i check/ change the shaft by pulling the intake and the oil pump drive? or am i gonna have to pull the engine? any advice will be greatly apperciated! thankx!
