I born in mind that parts are often 20+ old from the cars. I think perhaps sometimes there is an expectation that second...

Shortlife. I have a perfectly healthy 2.5, with correctly calibrated oil pressure switch. My oil pressure sits steady and dead in the middle of the gauge ( 55psi is it? cant remember the values) at idle, with the revs the pressure increases, and sits at 75% at near full revs. Highway driving at 70mp...
