I replaced my oil pressure regulator spring with a HD one. The one I took out measured short and the new one was longer than spec from Bentley. It helped, but after I got well up to temp, pressure disappeared at idle and water boiled over. I'm travelling for work this week, so I dropped off my car with my mechanic friend with a new oil pump and some plastic gauge to check the bearing clearance. I'll find out the status soon. This is more than a little frustrating with Triumphest starting next week.<VAR id=yui-ie-cursor></VAR></SPAN></div>

<DIV class=y_msg_container><BR>Did the guy with the oil pressure issue on his new 250 motor ever get this<BR>sorted? inquiring minds want to know. <BR><BR>I'm hoping to do a repeat on the<BR>San Diego mechanic with (300,000?) miles on his 250 and never did the bottom<BR>end. In the Triumph magazine article he said he just does regular oil<BR>changes with STP. I've shaved the head and a hotter cam so I may have added<BR>additional stress to the engine. my oil pressure hasn't deteriorated in 16<BR>years of ownerhip.<BR><BR>Cheers, Bruce Simms 73 tr6<BR><BR>________________________________________<BR><BR><A href="mailto:6pack@autox.team.net" ymailto="mailto:6pack@autox.team.net">6pack@autox.team.net</A><BR><BR>Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html<BR>Archive: http://www.team.net/archive<BR>Forums: http://www.team.net/forums<BR>Unsubscribe:
