Help No Oil Top End '99 T/a 
Hi, I'm new to this. My problem is, that I'm not getting any oil to my top end. Pulled the valve covers & ran it, nothing. Showing 40-50 # on the dash gauge. It's a '99 T/A, with 62K showing. Car sat for 1 1/2 yrs. I've been hearing that sitting will make the oil settle. What can I do to prime the lifters, to see if that will help. Any help, would be appreciated. Thanks, martyp
