Checking the oil pressure

The oil pressure sensor is located in the engine block, on the rear right as seen in the direction of travel

■ Disconnect the electric cable from the oil pressure sensor.

■ Unscrew the sensor and replace it with a suitable pressure gauge.

■ Start the engine.

■ In a warm engine (oil temperature 60 C, coolant 80 C) and idle, the oil pressure must not drop below 1,5 kG/cm2 (0,15 Mpa). Otherwise, the components of the lubrication system must be checked (pump, acetabulum etc.).

■ Unscrew the pressure gauge and screw in the oil pressure sensor with a new copper seal (tightening torque 30 N m m). Connect the electric wire.
