Unless of course you drive an Austin 7 (and who wouldn't want to) which
has a low preassure spit and hope oil system. If the pressure suddenly
jumps from the optimum 3 - 5 PSI this indicates a blocked jet - these
are conveniently situated on the side of the crankcase and you have to
immediately stop the engine, leap out and poke a bit of wire through
them. God I miss my Ruby!

Quite right. We do obsess about oil pressure.
Mae West achieved fame in several ways, one of which was a good turn
of phrase. She took credit for "too much of a good thing is never
enough"
and "nothing succeeds like excess", both of which might apply to our oil
pressure worries.
