How does an almost completed email just dissaper. I must be a magician. Once again.

IF memory serves, Te/AE once ran a tech tip concerning low oil pressure. The cause was the PRV (pressure relief valve) on the S5- 1725cc engine. Im thinking the author mentioned replacing a part w/ a bolt to make the pressure adjustable. Does anyone have a copy of the tip or can someone advise me what oil pressure should be on a fresh engine and any data concerning the relief valve would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

who has an Alpine too and a buddy from Scottland who has restored a S2 and the car is beautiful. I donated a 1725 to his cause and now Im being given the privilage of ironing the bugs out. So, Im turning to the professional Alpine people who gather here.Cya at SUNI, I hope.
