Hey Gang, I parked the truck and have been riding the motorcycle or driving the Datsun to work instead. As I was driving this week, my oil pressure gauge dropped to "0" and then slowly rose back to n

Do you hear a low pressure rattling sound? I know you have a 1600, but it would sound like when you have changed the oil and started up for the first time with new oil? If you hear that, I'd shut the

There's a spring-loaded pressure relief valve built into the oil filter mount. It is possible that this has either stuck open or the spring has failed. It's only two bolts to pull it off and check it

You can remove the valve cover and start the engine and make sure lots of oil is dripping and flying around from the pushrods and rockers. WOuld be wise to put some rags down on either side of the en

I can attest to how quickly your engine would be damaged w/o oil - about 25 seconds or so, when my Fram filter split and spewed 4.5 qts of oil in about 15 seconds or so. 2L pumps pump :( Con rod bear

If you have doubts, I would look for simple things first, like a stuck check valve (if Roadsters have those), a bad sending unit, a bad oil filter (sometimes the by pass valve fails I'm told.), inco

1600s w/stock oil pumps have very low oil pressure at idle but the same was true for 240Zs. The 1600 pumped about 10lbs per thousand revs up to a max of approximately 50 lbs w/10-40 oil. The 2L pumps

Thanks for the feedback on oil pressure at idle. Now that the temps are dropping below 90, I'm going to change out the 60 weight for some 20-50. I've put about 1,000 miles on mine this summer but th

Sounds like someone installed an aftermarket electric oil pressure sender where the gauge line should hook up. Remove the sender and connect the oil line, I think this is 1/8" standard pipe thread (b

The OEM Datsun oil pressure gauge is known for being a "idiot light gauge". Especially true on the 68-70 versions. If you actually have ZERO PSI oil pressure on the main galley at idle speeds, the ca

Hi Larry, I can tell you my 1600 runs 40lbs at idle (800 rpm) when cold, and drops to 20 at idle when hot. (Oil is 10w 50 Castrol GTX) At any RPM over 2000 she is pumping 80 lbs. The factory oil gaug

Finnally hooked up a quality aftermarket oil pressure gague to my 68 2000. Shows 16 psi at idle (700 rpm) and 60psi at 2000 rpm, fully warmed up. Is this about right? Thanks, Ray 68 1600 68 2000

Hi everyone, I was curious as to what the oil pressure should be for these cars. My guage doesn't ever go much past the half-way mark. At cruising speed it hovers around the half-way mark but when it

Ditto for the stock oil gauge on my '69 2000, which manages to crawl over the half-way mark at load and lives near the baseline with a warm engine at idle. It reads just like one on a '66 Triumph tha
