I don't run an oil gauge at my car. One thing less to worry about:

"If oil pressure drops - bullshit stops!"

Cheers

Well;
The good news is the engine didn't fail (pretty sure).  (TR4)  I am
running high
oil temp.  Ran 3 sessions with oil temp 220, 230 and 240.  Water
never got above
180.  Cut the filter open after the first seesion and it was
totally clean.
Pitted with Jeff Quick, Mark York and Charly Mitchel (TR4a,
TR6, TR3) at the
Sovren Spring Sprints.  Mark is having some challenges as
well.


I am afraid I can't make the tow from Vancouver Washington knowing
I have this
problem with no time on track before then.  I am really
disapointed that I won't
make my first this year.  I had been running laps in
my head around Laguna Seca
for months now.
