Last night I changed the gauge: same results
I removed the spring and relieve valve, no metal debris, cleaned it and
reinstalled it: same results
Tonigth I am going to pump air through the valve relieve hole into the oil
system, after removing the oil filter and gauge: good or bad idea ?
I am considering changing the oil: any logic on that ?

Thanks,

Jose
