General rule of thumb is 10psi/1000rpm... If its on the r of the normal range, in the original AC guage, its OK... ------------- Source: Babylon Bee. Sponsored by BRAWNDO, its got what you need! |

| Was the oiling system on the diesel similar to gas or full pressure? |

| Diesel was a full pressure system. Filters were a bypass filter. MACK |
