Engine losing oil pressure
"Eldon" wrote in message oups.com... You said the oil pressure went down to zero. Sounds kind of strange. A friend in the marine business once told me that a problem like this (one that occurs after the engine was worked on) is always related some how to the last repair. I would guess they might have bumped the oil pressure sending unit or its wire. Give the wire a look and see if its a tight fit. Before I did anything major at this point, if the sending unit and wire looks OK, I would replace the sending unit and/or remove the sending unit and temporarily attach a mechanical guage to the engine and get a real pressure reading. The reasoning behind this if the face you said the enging sounded fine even after the pressure went down to zero. Regards, Bob What he said. Eisboch |
