A while ago I discussed wether nptf sender would fit the npt thread in the engine
Well they do- no problem just have to be careful not to apply to much force
Today i tested my oilpressure with a manual gauge- pretty much the same even though the manual is reacting a bit faster
45 stone cold- falling to 15 as the thermostat opens Nicely following the rev in P 30 at 2000
driving falling to 7 and following revs but at a lower rate 15-20 at 2000
this is with 10-30 oil
vacuum stays nicely at 22Hg at idle very stable

Espen, how would a bad rod bearing influence oilpressure?
Knocking is very strange, just sometimes under pressure. Sound absolutely nice at stand still also revving As I want to outrule all boltons I am thinking about the suggested muffler. I have the original setup and muffler are close to the engine.
Just not sure how to investigate ?
It seems it is normal for oilpressure to fall as you set the vehicule in gear- can anybody explane why this is?

I have been thinking the same as Loffen but sure want to prove it is not something else first.
15W40 or 20W50 oil might help a little in the short term. I use 15W40 all the time.
I still think that you need an oil analysis done. There must be someone around that does it. Check a local truck stop or truck maintenance facility.

It might have been easier in Norwegian but your English was perfect.

Get your point Espen
Feel free to write in Norwegian that will the others a laugh
Ken: I actually received a testset from blackburn today, problem is that I really do not have any oil to sent
present oil is new and old oil is stored in some old vinegar jar- no idea what that would do to the test result?

I'll better reply that in English
Now we are coming close to religion ! Thicker oil yes more pressure cold yes, but will it give more pressure hot? and will it actually bring more oil to my bearings?

If your bearings are worn outside of wear limits, one thing that will be
readily apparent will br a loss of oil pressure. Particularly when the oil
is thoroughly warmed up. An oil analysis using oil that has been drained
after
normal oil change intervals will find only trace amounts of a few critical
indicators of trouble if all is well. If there is a compression or coolant
leak into the oil supply, there will be higher levels present of combustion
byproduct or anti freeze. If there is badly worn bearings, higher levels of
tin, lead, and copper will be present. High ferrous levels can indicate
worn rings, cylinders, cams and liters, etc. Your oil test company will
send a sheet of explanation with your results. I suspect that, from the
information you have provided, you will find worn crankshaft and camshaft
bearings. Just my experience, others may have different interpretations.

Lenze, perhaps I can shed some light on the good vacuum readings. This is a
reflection of good ring and valve sealing. It is possible to have good
upper end conditions and poor bottom end at the same time. PARTICULARLY
WHEN SOMEONE DOES A RING AND VALVE JOB AND DOES NOT REBUILD THE LOWER END
CORRECTLY. I often find these conditions when rebuilding Olds engines. The
high nickel content cylinders wear very slowly, but the connecting rods,
due to the high loading that slow speed and high throttle opening use in a
motor home gives, will distort the big end bores. If this is not corrected
when the engine is rebuilt, rod bearing life is very short. If the inserts
rotate in the rods, the crank is usually damaged as well. Just what happens.

Most awesome letters in the entire world.
Can also be spelled "Ae", "Oe" or "Aa", if your keyboard doesnt support these letters.
. (lower case: )
Common used letter in Norwegian and Danish, has its origins in latin. In Sweden, Germany and Finland they use "" (or "") instead.
. (lower case: ... well you propably figured that out already..)
Also a common used letter in both Danish and Norwegian, however, its also used in Faroese, and propably elsewere aswell. is equivalent to the vowel and letter in German, Swedish, Icelandic, Estonian and Finnish.
. (lower case: )
A letter only used in Scandinavia, Sounds like the vowel in "oh" or "no". In Danish an "" is a stream, small river or a creek.

無論如何，你明白我的意思，只要油冷而厚，你不會有任何問題，但是一旦它變熱而薄，你失去了壓力。
它可以幫助較厚的油，但它只是一個短期的臨時解決方案。 :)

GMail offered to, and did, a pretty good job on the Norwegian. But it
wants no part of that hen-scratching. I'll have to forward it to my
granddaugher. After 7 years of study, including 2-1/2 years in-country,
she should have no trouble with it. :-)
