Subject: Oil update was Re: Oil Pressure - off the charts & proper
remotefilter/remote cooler line c...
So, changed out from the Rotella T 20w50 to Valvoline synth 10w30.. same
pressures globally. Go figure. Saw 60-63psi on track all day, and it was
a scorcher for here, around 90*. Took the gauge off the car, hooked it
to the regulator on the air compressor and it reads the same as the air
compressor gauge, so confident the mechanical gauge reads accurately.
So, got great pressure, and running 20w50 vs 10w30 made no change.. odd,
but whatever. :) Track day went well, except for a corner worker telling
me I have a small puff of smoke occasionally from under the car. Found
the front fender liners both rubbed, so perhaps it was just that.. no
oil usage or leakage, so no other ideas. Replacement tranny and rear
ends worked very well, extremely pleased to be driving the car again! :)
