I described doing just that a few posts earlier. I got zero PSI.

John just pointed me to the Magnum manual page 7.1 where it reads that I can get to the pressure relief valve through the "rear closure plate". Section 11.9 describes installing the closure plate.

Unless the relief valve is stuck or broken I will have to split the cases to get to the oil pump.
