inline fuel shutoff question
Ok, I'll give her a try tomorrow. Just overthinking I guess. -

inline fuel shutoff question
I just replaced a leaking fuel shutoff at the tank. As others have suggested I would like to leave it open and use an inline shutoff. I just purchased one but after getting home I realize that the actual inner diam. of the valve is quite a bit smaller than the 5/16 diam. of the line it is in... -

Wow, thanks for the detailed answer! Very much appreciated. Mark -

Leaking fuel shutoff
I know this has been discussed before but I have a screw-type gas shutoff that leaks when it is opened, but not when shut. Anyone know off the top of their head what the fix is for this? It's a 4 cyl 4000 gasser. Thanks for your help. Mark -

high oil pressure update
About how long was it running at 90 psi? It's looking like I'm gonna just run it as is and hope for the best. -

high oil pressure update
I have the tester attached where the gauge would be at the end of the copper tube. I do hope I'm worrying over nothing. If that passage to the lifters were blocked I'm guessing there's no easy fix. -

high oil pressure update
An oil passage being blocked is the worst case scenario and my biggest concern. Sounds like a major ordeal. Has anyone ever had that problem, and if so, what did you do about it? -

high oil pressure update
I put a new gauge on it a couple weeks ago and it pegged 80. So I bought a test kit that goes to 140 and I've been running it with that till I get things figured out. So, I think it is a true reading. If 80 psi is not alarming that is what I want to hear. :) -

high oil pressure update
So, as in earlier thread, tractor was running high oil pressure, around 80 psi @ operating temp and 1500ish rpms. It would go down to around 40 psi at idle. Per (Showcrop, I think), I changed the oil to 10w30. Was running 15w40 rotella before. Tried to get 10w20 but couldn't find it. Anyway... -

erratic oil pressure
So, I ran ol' blue today for about 45 minutes with the rotary mower. When rpm's were up(1500 or better) the oil pressure stayed around 78-81 psi. After it was good and warm I idled it all the way down and it dropped to almost 40 psi. So I guess I try the lighter weight oil next and see what... -

erratic oil pressure
Yes, I run the 15W 40 rotella due to the conventional wisdom on this forum. Ok, I'll give her a little workout and see if anything changes. Just wanted to make sure it's safe to do so. -
L
erratic oil pressure
I did not work it. Just ran for about 10 minutes at various rpm's to see what the pressure was. So are you saying I need to work it a bit to see what the actual pressure is? Is it safe to do that if it is running at 80 psi? -
L
erratic oil pressure
Ok, well I got an oil press. tester that goes to 140 psi. I hooked it up and started it and after warming up it read 82 psi @ 1500 rpm. If I backed it off to an idle it would read 50-52 psi. So, obviously high pressure. If it were your's what would you do next? Is it unsafe to operate at... -

erratic oil pressure
Ok, will get a different gauge that reads higher. What would be the highest acceptable pressure? Any other reasons besides relief valve for this problem?
