It's quite logical the pressure goes up and down with the idle revs. That the clutch is effecting this can be explained of the fact the pre; /html/mgs/1998-11/msg01020.html (9,716 bytes)

When cold the pressure is much higher than when the engine is at normal temperature. My experience is, that an engi; /html/mgs/1998-11/msg01022.html (9,629 bytes)

Re: Bouncing oil pressure - MGB (score: 1): Author: "Kenneth Scott" <KSCOTT@holycross.edu>; Date: Thu, 19 Nov 1998 08:42:00 -0500; A possible cause for this (I'm told) is the oil pressure relief = valve. There is a spring which, if worn or weakend, will allow the valve = to open at a certain RPM. On my 1977, after I have REALLY; /html/mgs/1998-11/msg01023.html (9,232 bytes)

By changing the valve and spring you may stop it altogether, move it to a different rev-range, or leave it unchanged. PaulH.; /html/mgs/1998-11/msg01046.html (7,873 bytes)

My GT does much the same thing at times. At idle it will sometimes (not always) bounce between 45-60, rather rhythmically. It's been doing t; /html/mgs/1998-11/msg01060.html (9,785 bytes)
