Oil pressure
Posted: Sun Mar 31, 2013 3:37 pm
Hey fellas,
Have encountered yet another issue, my fairlady now is running stupidly
Low oil pressure, 20psi if I hold about 2200rpm but almost 0 at idle,
This is at colder than normal operating temp.
I thought the oem gauge and sendor was at fault so I
Imediately replaced it with aftermarket item but got similar readings.
I even tried running a thicker viscosity oil with no improvement.
Now Ive noticed the tappets slowly geting louder, which is obviously
Not a good sign. Any help would be appreciated.
Also if its oil pump issue any tips in regards to replacing it
Would be golden. Cheers
