  Perry,
   Sorry to be a pest but I am still not clear on this! Did you reverse stock spring on the metering pump or add an additional or over-riding spring to it??

 Thanks

No, I didn't do anything to the spring on the oil metering pump. There is no need to reverse it, because it already springs to "full on".
