[Vwdiesel] oil pressure problems tried everything

[cass]

i dont know for sure, but i would guess it has allot to
do with how *over* tight, or too lose the timing belt had been in the
past.(ok..and dirty oil  n such...)
i just know that when my old pressure has been low and ive
fixed/replaced EVERYTHING  on the engine and the oil pressure
has STILL been low...those bearings are the LAST thing i want to replace
( have to remove the engine n i cant replace the bearings myself)
but its always worn. :o/
now whenever i see a *older* (80's) diesel motor out...
even ones that had been rebuilt..i look at those bearings n they
 always seems worn. :o/
and in the future, if i rebuild a engine again...i will replace them
regardless.
