A slightly harder yet still simple fix is a new oil pressure relief spring and a cleaning of the thimble valve (whatever it is, it looks like a thimble) And the worst case senerio, new engine bearings and oil pump. I bet the O/P relief valve spring is weak. And if it's a new one from Asia and 2 weeks old, it's shot. -- Frank Clarici Toms River, NJ |
