Hey guy's just had some questions
I have been holding off for a while before asking on the board.
A while ago I was cruising down H2 when my oil pressure dropped off.
I was doing about 4000rpm at 80 mph or so.
I usually have pretty good oil pressure.
On start up I usually get 70-80psi.
Cruising I usually get into the 50's to 60's
Idle when it is hot usually 15psi to 20psi.
Now I get 40psi max on start up....then it slowly drops off as it starts to warm....but since I am scared of the low oil pressure I shut it down.
So far I have pulled the pan checked the rod bearings(good)
I didn't check the mains though
I re-installed a new pickup.
I pulled the front cover and checked the clearences on the pump and such.
Still the same result.
Just wondering if guy's have any info...
Also what kinda pressures do you guys get.
Thanks
