Subject:oil pressure at startup in diesel swapped inline 4
From:the Zezoffs
Date:Sun, 14 Apr 2002 16:36:39 -0700

I have a diesel Westy that was swapped with a 92 cabriolet egnine.  The oil
pump and pan are the original from the diesel with a total of 50k miles.
50% of the time at startup it takes about 1 minute for the oil pressure
light to extinguish.  The other half of the time, it goes out within
seconds.  Is there a oil pressure checkvalve somewhere that loses the oil or
prime.
TIA
