Just got my motor back and installed. I installed a duel pickup sender and have the hose extension kit installed as well. Also installed a new VDO Oil pressure gauge. Upon my first starting the motor, I only showed about 20 lbs of pressure on the gauge. I called my engine builder who said it showed 50 lbs + when he did his break in. I blew the hose out with air and cleaned the hole on the sender. The gauge now shows about 30 lbs of pressure....you guys have any ideas of why I am not getting a better reading? This is a brand new motor with the big oil pump. Could it be a voltage or grounding issue?
as usual...you guys are always a big help. Scott |
