[Vwdiesel] Peetering Pressure pumps performance

[Mark Shepherd]

like a definite restriction between the main oil
gallery and the
head circuit.

Your cam needs oil pressure as much as the the
mains do. I wouldn't
bother trying to fool the oil pressure sensor at
the head. You will be
happily driving down the freeway at some
reasonable speed when the cam
decides it has had enough and disintegrates,
taking the pistons, valves,
and/or rods with it.

There is no easy way I can think of the clear the
obstruction short of
pulling the head unfortunately.

Looking at my gasser circuit diagrams oilpressure
sensors are 1.8bar and 0.3bar for the head.
Specification limit is 2 bar 29lb @2000rpm.
Can the oil way be rodded from underneath with oil
pump off?
What about the oil channel behind the head sensor?
