I'm running some Castrol Syntec 5W-30 through mine to try to loosen up (I hope) my coked up rings-I am seeing 1.5 bar at idle-but only when fully warmed up-I would be concerned by oil pressure that low cold(possible oil dilution?). Amazing how the good deals always seem to end early when the desired amount isn't achieved-that should cause automatic bad feed back(just like a bid retraction would if you were a buyer). I need to list some of my old cr*p and stick it to some ebayers like everybody else does!
