Just fired up my Perkins A4.318 diesel after a
complete rebuild- it was my first.
It started up great, but the oil pressure was in
the high "yellow" range on the gauge (i.e. higher
than the "green" range. Sorry no pressure
quantity, just using the MF gauge in the dash.
I shut it down to think about it. I am guessing it
is just from new bearings.
Am I correct?
I have 10W30 with a bottle of the Lucas Zinc
additive in the oil pan.
