Optimal oil pressure.... A question I was afraid to ask. I have seen on this list and others, as well in propaganda from owners trying to sell their cars, claims of oil pressures in their SBF's of 60

Dave- Oil pressure, like many things can be argued as what is optimum. In my opinion your pressure drooped when at higher temps because of expansion. One needs to remember that oil pressure is measur

A look at the oil filter on a TR4 will reveal a similar but factory feature. It's been awhile but this might be adaptable for other uses. Moonstone ** It's only a deal if it's where you want to go. F

I would think that the oil pressure gauge is the culprit, try hooking up another oil pressure gauge (one you know works) and hook it up at the end of the pressure line coming from the engine (under t

Dave, several things come to mind. One is, of course, the in dash pressure gauge. See if you can rig up a second gauge for a direct comparison. But, there are other issues as well. If you have the st

You make a lot of good points. First, I will test my gauge as the next step. The remote filter does have lots of places where the various fittings and twists and turns can reduce flow and as you hav

First you need to check the oil pressure at the engine with another gage to compare readings with the gage on the dash. Until you know that you really don't know there is a pressure drop or a gage/
