Also, if you have been having a drop in pressure, PLEASE check your rod bearings especially the #2. If you blow a rod bearing, it is a very expensive fix. To replace the bearings is not easy but the alternative is worse.>>trust me on this one.

I call shenanigans. If that plug is solid, then there is no flow, you would have zero oil pressure. None at all. No oil would ever even reach the filter. The cooler is between the pump and oil filter.
Were the two oil lines connected directly together somehow, rather than to the cooler?

So I guess in that case he would either have no thermostat or it was broken and allowed the oil to flow past at all temps?
