oiling problems

Post by gse_turbo »

yes, low oil presure can cause you to spin main bearings, then you would have to get your crank ground and polished, and a lot more. i just got the T22 for my car cause someone spun the bearings. for now go with a cheeper filter. when you get into building up the motor you can shim your oil presure spings to bring up the presure. if you really get into big build up i can show you how to make the presure on your stock pump adjustable.

low oil pressure never felt good for me... too high pressure isn't good either but low pressure is way more damaging.
