Oill and Oil Pressure


JimO

Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

Just had my roadster a few days now, and now have a few questions regarding oil!

 

1. What pressure is normal in normal driving conditions and rest, etc?

 

2. What oil should I be using for an oil change? Are there any group buys, or do you have Oilman round these parts as well!

 

3. How much oil does it drink, I regulary check my cars oil, but being a new car I don;t know what I should be looking for in terms of how much it gets through?

 

Thanks

 

:)

Yes Opie are around these parts too, so you can still get good quality stuff at a good price. He will let you know what you need.

 

As for using oil, mine hasnt used a drop between services for 2yrs now. I check regularly, but it doesnt ever drop noticably.

Thanks in contact with Oilman now, man he gets around :D

 

He said 5/40, so will get some Motul I expect, used that before and liked it on other cars

 

What about the pressure, what shoudl I be looking at once warm, in traffic, under load etc

 

Also, how much oil do I need for an oil change
