I'm posting this message  again hopping to get more response.  6 replies so
far.  There must be  more of you out there with oil pressure gauges on your 2.1
engines.
From 07/12/03
>>  I'm posting this  message again as I've received only two replies so far
from the original  posting.  One of them was from someone with an OEM 2.1
motor.   So, maybe it would be good to have more info like that for comparison.
So...to make it more interesting I would like responses from anyone with a 2.1
 engine equipped with an oil pressure gauge.  Just make sure you designate
what engine your giving the specs for.  I will be posting the results as  they
come in to a webpage I will create later today.  Goto my main  page at
_www.frankcondelli.com_ (http://www.frankcondelli.com/)  then to my  "Mechanics" page
and find the link to the "Vanagon 2.1 Engine Oil Pressure  Survey"
I am looking to gather some oil  pressure information on Boston Bob's
Engines.  Would any of you who have a  Boston Bob Engine please report on the oil
pressure of your engine,  especially if you have a separate gauge installed.  I
will publish these  results when they are complete.
Please fill in this report and send it to me by  p-mail @ _RAlanen@aol.com_
(mailto:RAlanen@aol.com) : Do not flood the List with  this info, I will
publish the results when they are complete.
