after sitting for 5 hours my car went from running great to running terrible

thanks to all you guys for the advice.

i havent done a compression test or vacuum test yet but i did get a carb kit.

i still plan on doing a compression test and vacuum test as soon as i get oil pressure back.

i was tuning the carb and it lost all oil pressure, so i pulled the pan and found PINE NEEDLES!!

the oil filter is filled with them too. i already ran a quart of flush through it ounce then drained it, changed the filter and filled it back up. so i guess the pine needles were hiding until now.

not sure what to do now. . . i plan on pulling the oil pump and cleaning it or replacing it. but who knows how many pine needles are left in the block or anywhere else. do you think i could still make this thing a daily driver without a total tear down?

(filter and pan are a little rusty, left em outside overnight #-o )
