1. Low Oil Pressure (score: 1): Author: Glenn Franco <gaf3@charter.net>; Date: Mon, 02 May 2005 20:37:34 -0400; Sorry to bomb the list by it's difficult to listen to the speculation about the Pressure relief valve located above the oil pump. It's a pressure relief valve with a spring calibrated to dump oil bac; /html/6pack/2005-05/msg00024.html (7,451 bytes)
2. Re: Low oil pressure (score: 1): Author: "Robert M. Lang" <lang@isis.mit.edu>; Date: Wed, 4 May 2005 08:19:51 -0400 (EDT); I've had the pressure relief valve fail on a race motor. I was lucky and "heard it" and I saw the oil pressure dropped to low numbers - 20 psi at 4000 RPMs. I only wrecked one rod bearing. There see; /html/6pack/2005-05/msg00048.html (7,838 bytes)

My '76 has about 12# @ hot idle, 50 # @ speed. So, I should check oil pressure sender, set screw on rockers, then check the oil pump s; /html/6pack/2005-04/msg00417.html (7,209 bytes)

RE: Low oil pressure (score: 1): Author: "Mark Hooper" <mhooper@digiscreen.ca>; Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2005 21:26:51 -0400; Doesn't this just provide some increase in maximum oil pressure acting on the fiter? As far as I know, the spring/ball affair is not a pressure regulator, it is a bypass. The bypass comes into play o; /html/6pack/2005-04/msg00423.html (8,944 bytes)

RE: Low oil pressure (score: 1): Author: "mitch vamos" <mitchvamos@operamail.com>; Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2005 02:44:50 +0100; i have no clue but i have heard that if the spring gets weak you get lower pressure. so a stiffer spring might help. mine will probably get lost b4 i ever get the chance to use it in the future. -- O; /html/6pack/2005-04/msg00424.html (10,289 bytes)
9. Re: Low oil pressure (score: 1): Author: acekraut11@aol.com; Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2005 22:17:41 -0400; ...but, if the spring in the pressure relief valve is weak from years of use then it would allow more oil to bypass causing an overall reduced oil pressure reading. Does this make sense? Aaron Crople; /html/6pack/2005-04/msg00425.html (9,487 bytes)
10. RE: Low oil pressure (score: 1): Author: "Mark Hooper" <mhooper@digiscreen.ca>; Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2005 00:07:20 -0400; Hi Aaron: True enough. I was writing more about the notion that if you put a spring stronger than stock it will somehow raise your oil pressure on a worn engine.
