Fresh rebuild, oil everywhere

After it warms up and the pressure drops, raise the rpms to 4000 and see if the gauge comes up to the 60-65 lb range and is steady. If it does I believe you are ok. The low pressure pump is just that ....low pressure. Just make sure its steady at the higher rpm range (4000).

If it fluctuates at 4000 rpms add a half qt of oil and check it again.

Thanks for the info on the camper, that is what I need.
