Subject: Re: Oil pumps
Hi Folks,
Great post from Julian.
I agree with his cavitation diagnosis and am not surprised that the pipe work routing makes a difference. I am also very interested in the conclusion that engine harmonics may cause the standard pressure relief valve to open. I am a great believer in not having too high an oil pressure, and 2 Litres are such strong cars that I’m sure these fluctuations are not particularly serious.
