Barry! Thanks for your tips. I will get an acurate gauge to test the "real" pressure. I only discovered the pressure problem yesterday. I will also change oil and filter and try to get a new sender unit. Some say the rotation speed won´t matter, some say it will. Some say the viscosity of ...

Took her for a spinn tonight...

The first test drive went great! Took her for a short spinn and she runs exelent. No vibations from the transvestite axle or the engine. Didn´t dare to rev her too high, but enough to feel the 3.0QV power. :D Runs smooth too...

I´m trying to find a question in there, but I´m coming up short... ;-)
I might get me an aftermarket ECU later, but this will have to do for now.
