No, I am not using Pennzoil, and I have not yet changed the pump, I am
considering it at this point.

Are you using Pennzoil?  It will do that every time.  Do not use the high
pressure one, could get oil behind bearings and spin one.  Why did you
decide to replace your oil pump anyway?

I think it's time to replace the oil pump in my 300G. I'm noticing pressure
is dropping to a very low level on a hot day after a long drive while in
gear and idling (went to the Ironstone Concours in Murphys yesterday) 

I looked at Rock Auto, and they list 3 different oil pumps all from the same
manufacturer (Sealed Power) and one is standard, the second is
"High-Volume", the 3rd is "High Pressure". Prices are only $10 more as you
go up. 

What gives? Why should I go with a standard pump if the other two are so
close in price? Is there a problem going with a non-stock pump? Could it
blow out seals in an older rebuilt engine? Those in the know please share
your knowledge on this.

Thanks!

Bob J
