7MGE oil pressure

Arne (Denmark) · 05-31-2007, 07:04 AM

Well I tried to change all the engine oil this morning. I just had to, to see what happened.
Well. The oil pressure nearly trippeled. :-|
No metallic parts in the oil or the oil filter.

The engine was quiet and was quiet for a long time even when reving.
Then I started the engine again. At start up a short rattle came and then it was quiet. Then the oil pressure came back to low again about 1 kg/cm2 at idle revs. Now it makes a continous rattle and at about 2500 rpm I can sense the engine is a tad bit irradical.

I will remove the valve cover to see what is going on underneath..

If it's a valve lifter or several the task is for me now to find a lifter in a stack of 24... :-/

Have a Supra Day. :-)
