Typically, the car held at 2 bar idling, and dropped to 0 as soon as I cut it off. I can check the filter cap tube for problems. Just so long as there isn't an oil passageway in the engine somewhere that is obstructed. I had an issue with a couple of cam lobes getting scraped up a little. I polished them smooth and cleaned out the oil squirter tube above them. That was a couple of years ago. Is there anything like an engine flush that I could try? I've heard of putting diesel fuel into the oil, but also heard that was terrible. I sure would like to get rid of any extra sludge or whatever might be in there.
