Reply to "Oil Pressure??.. What say you??..."

...Doug You would lose that Bet! The pin that I found sheared, was on a Brand-New, Never disassembled Distributor. Hard as Glass it broke into 3 pieces, 1 in the center of the shaft and 2 on each side of the Gear! You ARE correct about the Engine imediately Stopping! I was cruising up Highway 99 at 80 MPH, in the Far Left Lane, when the Engine Just Quit! I imediately Knew it was the Pin, because the Oil Pressure Gauge was at '0' Zero. I put In the clutch so as Not to Rotate the Engine with No Oil; and coasted with the momentum. I managed to 'Throw' The Cat over Three lanes of traffic and onto the Right-Hand Shoulder. Sitting in the Pantera with Cellphone in hand, I called AAA and was picked up on a Flatbed Transport not 20 Minutes later. On later inspection I found Nothing in the Oil Pump Gears! Must have been the 'Blast' of Power on the Entrance ramp onto the Freeway just before the Breakage...
