strange oil pressure
tonycougar:
I have just discovered that some of the early 200s didn't have oil coolers and hence didn't take as much oil to fill them, mine does have an oil cooler so that answers the second question.
muddysteve:
my dip stick was all wibbly wobbly so i reckon yours might have slipped down too les
easy way to check is to lift it up out of sump and lay it against it out side at its current height, mine was at just the right height for the bottom of dipstick to be sat on the bottom of the sump :shock:
i'm fairly sure it shouldnt be that low :roll:
tonycougar:
Ah that helps, so the dipstick is supposed to reach the bottom of the sump?
muddysteve:
no i dont think its supposed to be sat on the bottom of the sump, if you pull out the dipstick tube you should see an indentation from where it was fitted in the right place at the factory
tonycougar:
No such indentation noticed when I pulled it out, but I did measure dipstick against side of block and seems to almost reach the bottom of the sump, but the tube is less than 290mm :?
