My drive to Hershey was flawless. I drive with the newly converted 6 for the first time a total of over 500 miles ov weekend.
The engine sounds great and handles great, however I have a glitch on the oil pressure gauge and light that I would like to figure it out and solved. When the engine is cold and the car is idling at about 1200, the light is off and the pressure gauge goes up over the 3 mark, as the engine warms up it goes down to 1 at idle and will not go pass the 1 1/2 mark at any rpm as shown on the picture ;the light will come on at a full stop (1000 rpm) I am using brad Penn 20x50 oil I am wondering if it's the pressure sender or oil overfill. All comments appreciated The motor is 6yl stock 2.0 Attached thumbnail(s) |

Picked up a 5 bar sender from the great Bruce . I got it today and my pressure is fine.
Thanks to you all. |
