Archived from groups: alt>autos>mini (more info?)

Hi All

I have noticed, that when my car is started from cold and at idle, I have
around 50-60psi of oil pressure according to a gauge that I have retro
fitted. Once the car has reached running temperature and is at idle, the
pressure reads about 20psi, at 50mph or 3-3500rpm the pressure is at
50-75psi.
I have consulted the Vizard Bible and this directs me to the Oil Pressure
Relief Valve sticking open but does not educate me to what damage could be
caused or say that you should not run the car.
This is a problem that has arrisen since fitting the gauge and simply by now
being there, I can read what the pressure is at. I have no idea if this was
a problem before as i had no gauge fitted.

I ask you what your views on this are on this please and if there is an
applicable repair that you would suggest or a clean up?

Thanks in advance,


Dick Jones.

I have since found my Haynes manual which tells me that the oil pressure
should be at 15psi when the engine is idling and 65 when running.

Am I understanding this correctly or can some else elaborate.

Cheers

Sounds absolutely perfect readings to me. dont change a thing. My 93 non
cooper was pretty much the same, but only getting to around 65psi, never any
higher.

The official Austin Rover Service repair manual says:-

60lbf/in² running and 15lbf/in² at idle

Oil pressure warning light 6 to 10lbf/in²

Releif pressure valve opens 60lbf/in²

Hi DJ,
I make a point not to fit oil pressure gauges to my cars, they frighten the
life out of you when the pressure is up and down all the time,
I rely on the oil light to inform me, any way ,, high oil pressure with cold
engine due to the viscosity of the oil,, as the oil warms up so the pressure
drops, if the engine is worn, the oil pressure can drop to almost zero, but
recover if revved up,
HTH,
Fitzy

Hi, One problem with your reasoning, Fitzy. The oil light only tells you
when things have gone wrong, the guage tells you in advance that things
might go wrong.

I totally agree Keith,
the gauge gives you a advanced warning,
but I still prefer the light to the gauge,
(are you the real xx, Keith LOL)

You used to be able to get a higher switching low oil pressure switch. This
would come on at say 20lbf/in² instead of 6-10lbf/in² which could be too
late. Most racing/rally cars used them normally wired up to a big orange
warning light on the dash.

Anyone remember the Hillman Avenger, there's a window cleaner near me who
still used one, roof rack and ladders, I remember they had the ignition
wired through a oil pressure light type unit, so if the oil pressure failed
then the ignition was dead also,
clever idea,,

What I did once was to wire the starting circuit through the brake pressure
switch for the brake lights that the old mini's used to have. That way you
had to put your foot on the brake to start the car, just another little
trick to stop the scrotes taking your cherished.
