Yes.It very often works well,but iirc it hasnt in this case.

Book of lies;
Minimum permissible oil pressure at idle speed, with engine
at operating temperature (oil temperature of at least 80°C) . . . . . . . .1.5 bar (22 psi)

if it helps anyone in anyway i can check oil pressures on Autodata on monday to compare against what haynes says?

Couldn't hurt Webby.

Ime the figures involve a range between idle and a set rpm, say 2000rpm os similar.

Although tis should have all the info I would have thought...?

yep pretty sure theres two figures at idle and at xRPM. I'll check monday

I've got a fair few lifters - do you want a slack handful Tunnie ?

Thats very kind, think I'll take you up on that

Guess all depends on the gauge, but it was around this. When revv'ed the pressure rose as expected. Although it did drop just under 20 a couple of times. Not massively different to Rusty bullet or TBE.

Given amount of V6's around, we've never really seen anything like this before. I'm verging back to lifters, even more so if you say it may have had head work Chris

I've got a 1999 ish 3lt lump which runs quite as a mouse which I will be stripping next month.
Tappets came from and fitting by DLK and made a hell of a difference 
Give us a shout next month if your interested and we will sort something out

Wow 2 offers of lifters. 

Love this place

Autodata 1.0 bar @690 rpm

Autodata 1.0 bar @690 rpm

Quick Google suggest: 1.0 bar = 14.50 PSI.

So mines above that, so pressure is fine.

Thats the only pressure that A/data lists for that engine so if you are above that at idle it should be ok

[tunnie]

Yeah never went that low, always thought if that was issue engine would have gone bang by now

I'm hoping you may have looked to see if I'm even talking about the right cars first...? It's a big assumption...etc.

Could not see any reference to another engine/car?
