Oil pump drive gear stuck

tap it in...told you so......:thumbsup:

I think the burnishing tool is just a precision fit driver that prevents the bushing from reducing in size once the bushing is driven into place? Dont know, not really important anymore....

To tell the truh I was afraid to "tap it in". I did that in 1979 when I was a kid with a 340 I rebuilt myself. Didn't get drive gear hex down far enough into oil pump drive and chewed the oil pump drive up. Didn't know it at the time but knew I had no oil pressure at startup. The trauma from that incident resurfaced during this adventure!
