Attached is a photo of the intermediate shaft alongside the priming tool marked where it bottoms out.
Oil pan is on but you guys have confirmed what I was thinking. I'm gonna have to pull the pan and see what is happening at the pump. Was hoping maybe someone had run into this and I could avoid that but sounds like something is not right.
I have oil in it and used the priming shaft to prime it and confirm I had oil to the valve train. I did so I assumed all was good.
