Hi,
The minimum oil pressure at 2000 rmp (By Bentley spec, is Bentley right!!!)
is 2 BAR (29PSI). Why do we have a.9 BAR (13PSI) as minimum pressure alarm
/ switch??? It does not make sense, the minimum should be at least 1.5 -
1.8 BAR (What is minimum?)

Get a damn oil pressure gauge!!!

Yea, Bentley is a big book full of it!!!!! In a 10-page section on the
lubrification subject, no mention of the oil pressure at freeway
speed????????????????????

Regards, Ben
