y would my oil pump leaking after i changed my head gasket on my 22re it never leaked before and my oil pressure guage stops working i can take my sending unit off and start my truck and then put it back on and it works for a bit then quits again ?

 

what do you mean your oil pump is leaking?
a picture or two of what you mean would help.
the oil pump on a 22re is driven off the crankshaft so a head gasket change should not affect the oil pump.
... unless you messed something up getting the timing chain installed.

 

i will try to get some picks tomm but i wouldnt thing that i messed up nething in there now my truck does act like it dont have ne power but i hae checkked my top timong sprocket 3 time and it is right but i didnt think they was too many thing to mess up in there but it is leaking around twhere tha crank cums out i am assuming the front seal ? i dont know i ant never changed a oil pump on a yoda

 

I'll tell you straight up, you cannot get the timing chain installed properly without taking a lot of precautions and even then you can't guarantee that the marks line up without removing the oil pump and timing chain cover.
so start over like you were building a new engine- install the head, then the gears and chain, and then...

 

k thanks man i am going to change the oil pump this weekend just so i will know its new u know just cuz it is peaking the 200,000 mi mark so i will go bk and set the chain then

 

hey man good news i was a tooth off on the top sprocket i dont that and lol had a time trying to figure out how to set the timing but i finnly got it and now my power is bk and i changed the oil pump gaskets and it stoped all the leaking now if i can only get the valves to shut up i think i will b ok lol i went muddin yesterday and i could barly even climb a little hill but now it isdoing good loke i saied just cant get the valves to shut up ne hints on that ?

 

I think an english class would help you out alot, trying to read your post gave me a headache.

 

Search "Valve Adjustment"

 

Or maybe “grammar, spelling, punctuation….”? My head hurts from trying to read that.

I'm glad he figured out what the problem was though.
