My oil pressure light lights up at idle & the car starts to sound like death.
Just replaced the head after overheating & cracking it. Been having troubles replacing it since i dont know wtf im doing but i enjoy "fixing" it. Most days :)
Changed the head gasket and milk shake still poured out.
Took it in and they quoted me 3k to change my head.
Bought a head from CL but it had 33mm intake valves instead of 30mm.
Think its from a M44, Could this be the cause of my low oil pressure?
Tried to take off my lower oil pan but failed after 20minutes and bolted everything back up. Starting to think i might of fucked up the gasket and losing pressure there.
Might of blown a gasket somewhere else when it overheated but where?
Also read you need to prime the oil pump but i'm pretty sure im getting pressure, not that ive tested it with a gauge but the light is off on cold starts & Sounds pretty good then starts to lose pressure & sound shitty after it heats up. Idk what that could mean.
Thinking about changing the lower oil pan gasket, the oil filter housing gasket, thicker oil and oil pressure switch. Anything else that i could try?
