check the oil pressure to the hole on the minimum
pressure sensor.
- Check the oil pressure reading is between 0.5
and 1.2 atm with the engine idling at 1650 rpm and
the oil at the required temperature (wait for at least
one electric ventilation).
- Check the oil pressure is between 3.2 and 4.2
atm with the engine running at a speed 6000 rpm
and the oil at the required temperature.
- Remove the appropriate tools once the meas-
urement is complete, refit the oil pressure switch
and washer, tightening it to the specified torque
and fit the fan cover.
- If the oil pressure is not within the specified limits,
in the following order, check: the oil filter, the oil
by-pass valve, the oil pump and the crankshaft
seals.
