Subject:Oil Pressure Relief Valve Divot???? 85 GL 1.9
From:Dave Bohannan

Just what the title says…

I’ve been narrowing an oil pressure flicker light and decided that while I changed my oil out that I’d take a look at the pressure relief valve, spring, etc...

To my surprise (and dismay) there’s a skid mark shaped divot taken out of the top center of the valve off center a tad…I had this out a decade ago and don’t remember this, but…who knows maybe it was already there??! Why?!?! What on earth could be wearing right in the center and literally like a grinder wheel took a piece of it out?!?!

I’m slapping it back together again as I wait for my dual gauge set up…

Any thoughts?
