·My oil pressure gauge is eternally pessimistic and normally hovers around the 3 Bar mark. The manual says that 2.6 Bar means I have a shagged engine, so obviously I want to raise the OP a bit if I can (but not artificially, of course).
I cleaned up the oil pressure sender contact under the distributor but it made no difference to the reading at all.
How can I check that the gauge is actually right, and supposing it is (Tarquini has ventured past Orion and Jupiter in his lifetime) then how can I raise the OP a bit, short of sticking 30W60 oil in it?
He's a regular well-ard (skinny body) V6 with Selenia 10W40 in the sump and otherwise runs nice and smooth.
