[QUOTE="ozziedog, post: 592093, member: 13810"] I think you have the nail on the head. I'm guessing it's possible to check your oil pressure without pulling everything out, just to confirm your diagnosis. This is now the piece of string situation about how long it's gonna last but I don't think any panicking is required. What sort of oil are you using ? And when was the last time you did an oil change. It is possible with a worn engine for everything to get just a little hotter than normal with a bit of a load on and warmer weather etc etc etc it is possible that the oil is cooked. Are you using multi flavour mineral? I reckon it will last a bit longer with an oil change to help out possibly Halfords classic 15/50 mineral or something like that. Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,, might do another five thou :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
