when i say i ran low on oil the little oil supply line to the injector pump popped off. we literally pumped the oil out of the engine. i noticed a slight difference in sound, and saw the oil pressure was down. i pulled over, and there was a oil splattered all over the engine, and it smelt like a hot engine. we put about 6 quarts in it to get it full. (i believe it has a 7-7.5 quart capacity). it drove home fine other than a slight whine in higher RPMs from the turbo.

i have heard of the pressure valve in the banjo fitting where the return leaves the output of the IP. is there a way to check this? if its not getting enough pressure to open it does that mean my lift pump may be bad?

Thanks,
Ethan
