I agree. And as I recall 6 cylinder Healeys had two different oil pump designs. Perhaps one design produces bigger pulsations. Gary Hodson I disagree. In a braking system the transmission of force/pr

So - why does the oil gauge oscillate? Mine has only done it periodically - maybe once every six months or a year. The rest of the time it is steady. I don't know if there is air in the line or not.

My oil gauge oscillates when the connection is loose and I get these little spots of oil on my pants. Tighten it up and it's smooth again. John 64/66 BJ8 _____________________________________________

I've never seen these gauge pulsations. However, I have often loosened the fitting at the gauge on initial start up until oil appears, to get a good reading. More than once, prior to bleeding off the

Isn't it odd and interesting how the designers of Healeys and their component parts were able to get them to behave one way for one person, and the opposite way for another person? Steve Byers HBJ8L/

The oil gauge oscillating may depends on the design of the oil pump. If there is a slight variation in the output pressure you may see some vibration at low revs. Another source of a vibrating gauge

Sorry - I disagree. No air should be in the guage oil line - by design. Robert N. Blair Yellow 65BJ8 RNBmail@yahoo.com I agree. And as I recall 6 cylinder Healeys had two different oil pump designs.

Len, I do not know, but I would suspect it to be a 'problem' within the guage mechanism - not pulsating oil pressure in the line or lack of air in the line. Robert N. Blair Yellow 65BJ8 RNBmail@yahoo

John, Makes some sense - when the nut is loose, there is a 'variable leak' in the line pressure, and so you would expect the needle to vary. A tight line with no leakes means a constant fluid pressur
