patman Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Do you mean a compression test? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
glanza ep91 23 Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 No an actual oil pressure test i plan to do one and i need the normal pressure figures Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Not sure about that mate I just have an oil pressure gauge in mine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
decdd19 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 What sort of reading do you get when yours is warmed up patman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Ok when the car is first started up from cold I get65-70 psi which is around 4 and a half bar/5bar.When the car is all warmed up and on idle I get about 20psi which is about 1.4 bar that's with the Rev needle on 1k revs, Of course using the revs the oil pressure will go up and taking foot of throttle pedal it will go back down again, obviously if I used the screw on the throttle body and now idled at 1200 revs the oil pressure will go up slightly, hope this makes sense decdd :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
decdd19 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Yeah that's absolutely spot on was just wondering what other people were reading off there's mine is very similar to yours maybe a bit stronger on idle even Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Have done searches before on this and mine seems the same as a lot of others, did see something on here few weeks ago with one of them small hks oil filters suppose to raise the oil pressure abit aswell.

AdamB Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 6 bar or there abouts when cold.At least 1 bar at idle when hot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
