hi everyone, 2 things really

1st, on the 52mm link meter gauges, i have a start up mode where the gauges flick about, then go to normal but when i turn of the engine, they just go off.
i read somewhere that there should be a start up and end sequence/mode for them?

and what should the oil pressure be when warm at idle and mornal driving? same for oil temp.

thanks all

ian

Oil pressure depends on the type of oil

I use 10.60 Millers and warm idle is approx 40 psi - normal driving around 90 psi

Oil temp of around 90C

am using silokleen pro s 10/50

oil temp is about right, goes to around 100 i think when giving it some.

what is best to set the warnings at?

There's no 'end sequence' on my Defis, they just turn off.

Have my oil temp alarm at 120 and pressure at 2.0bar. But that's on my car, you may want yours set differently, depends what yours is normally.

normal driving the oil pressure is around 6 bar and at idle it is around a smige under 3 bar

That's similar to mine. Idle drops a bit on track so I leave it at 2bar.
