i use a trailer cargo net , removed the bungee cord , and fitted a wire cord through it , on the front and back there's a aluminium tube supporting the front and back , the side's are fixed to aircraft cargo rails (mounted on the side's just under the roof)

I put heavy grease in the bushes on assembly and then let the 1-shot do the rest.
i think that's the main difference , putting the grease in on assembly .
i rebuild my swivels with a drop of oil in the railko, so i don't believe grease will get there.
-
i wouldn't put grease in an railko system , the grease is way to thick to lubricate the top pin and railko bush .
just use oil (like it was supposed to run on) , and as mentioned above , if you get leaks , put some one shot grease in to thicken the oil .

Seems a bit odd as the oil pressure should be high when initially started. I think the best thing to do is get an actual reading. Get a mechanical oil pressure gauge and fit it to get actual readings just to absolutely rule out a sender/wiring issue of some sort.
not iff all the oil is drained from the oilpump , then it take's time to fill up the pump and oilways.
i would go with western and look at the oilpump and reliefvalve.

i would try and measure what is going on , put a voltmeter (black on - battery ) on the thin wire going to the startermotor relay (make sure the thin wire is still connected to the starter (if impossible to exces, make a splined wire), start and see what the voltage is on the wire .
step 2 is put the voltmeter on the thick wire on the starter motor (again leave the thick cable connected) , and see if the voltage drops away if you start the engine.
this will make sure you have power on both wires.

on heavy good's vehicle's with cranked steering rod's they use a sleeve on one side with a left hand thread on the outside and right hand thread on the inside , so you can adjust the tracking without taking the steering knuckel's apart.
