hey guys, i just hooked up my mechanical oil pressure gauge and have no leaks. is it normal for my guage to make a swirling sound? its getting annoying lol. also my oil pressure seems to be 40-50 psi going 80mph (3000 rpm) is that normal?

 

Yes, the noise is normal. You get used to it after a while. Its especially audible when you have a copper line instead of the teflon/plastic one that it comes with. Oil pressure sounds about right. Mine shoots up pretty quick after 3000, up to 75-85 at 4500.

 

yeah, i bought the copper tubing kit. thanks

 

Yeah dont sweat it man..........i have an autometer mechanical too and i get vibrations from the line just as you are describing. Yeah its a little annoying at times but do what i do.....turn up the music an little.

 

i hate that noise!!

 

Yea I had that noise too..in my ek, i never heard that noise, and when i installed it in my eg, i hear it. Im using a SS line. Did anyone ever find a way to get rid of this?
