Should I be worried? Oil Pressure Question
I've been watching my OPG a lot recently - I have fitted an early 'real' OPG to my car - and just wondered if what I'm seeing is indicative of an imminent failure, is the OPG picking up knock, or is completely normal.
The OPG rises as RPM's rise, but above 6k it starts to drop off again, is this the Oil pump passing it's 'sweet' spot and isn't being as efficient in revs? or do I have an issue I need to resolve promptly?
Oil has been changed every 3 months with Mobil1 and is stays golden, I can't hear any knock through detcans, but that still doesn't stop me worrying - (does it knock when it know's i'm not listening )
Reasurring advice greatly sought
Video of it here, put it on mute if you don't like superchargers
