My engine has about 6k miles on it after an unknown rebuild. It's very strong but suffers from low oil pressure.
What are the possible causes? Any cures? |

QUOTE(Jake Raby @ Oct 9 2004, 01:39 AM) Oil pressure relief spring is fatigued or the valve its self is not seating corectly... These are two very common causes (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I did a rebuild (T4 bus) earlier this year the pressure relief valve was not seating proper. I had a ream/refacing tool made and it is now a standard prep service on all my engines. I've also seen a lot of slop in some old T4 pumps. |
