Bonneville92V688 is on a distinguished road

Yes I took the oil filter adapter off, and I did put the cup and spring back in... Did I put it in wrong? Tell me how it goes in... and I'll see if I have it right.

Spring goes first into the timing cover, then the cup.

Hope you didn't run it long.

For future readers, it'* best to pack the oil pump with vaseline if it'* been disassembled or drained down for a long period, always pre-fill your oil filter with oil, then disconnect the ICM and crank the engine until the oil pressure comes up.
