What's a good oil pressure? Mine gets about 33 Psi. the reason I'm asking is because I just bought another first gen, one with a rebuilt motor and that one gets like 60 psi. Is 33 Psi low?



Also is Lukas oil treatment a good idea

33 is low, ususally the oil pressure senders get flakey though

hahahaha,

Yeah, when I bought my 2nd first gen, the first thing I had to do was change the o-rings, cos the engine blew lots of smoke. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
