Title: oil pressure Post by ray82609 on 04/21/05 at 11:25:49 Is there anywhere you can take an oil pressure measurement on a 96 Savage? -Ray |
Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Oklahoma_Mike on 04/21/05 at 15:59:10 Good question ??? |

Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Kropatchek on 04/22/05 at 01:31:55 It's the plug #18 that you can take off and attach an oilpressure gauge. http://www.ronayers.com/fiche/300_0271/crankcase/crankcase.cfm?man=su&groupid=7170&parent=7080 Greetz Kropatchek ;D |

Title: Re: oil pressure Post by PerrydaSavage on 04/22/05 at 02:23:46 LOL ... sluggo, you crack me up! ;D Actually, thought I saw an oil pressure guage somewhere on the web that fits where the oil-fill cap goes?? |

What you saw was probably an oiltemperature gauge in the place of the oilfiller plug. Have one fitted to my bike. It actually gives you the temp of the engine as the probe does not contact the oil. Greetz Kropatchek ;D |

Title: Re: oil pressure Post by bobo383 on 04/23/05 at 05:23:40 I GOTS TO KNOW...Anyone actually got a pressure guage attached to the bolt #18 location? What kind of oil pressure are we talking about on the Savage? I've been thinking the oil pressure is relatively low (compared to small block chevy). Kind of like a 30 year old ford at idle ya know just moving the oil around but not really pressurized. Need education please. |
Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Greg_650 on 04/23/05 at 07:25:35 There are oil pressure specs in the SSM, which is in the garage, so I'll try to remember to check later. |

THANK YOU, MIKE 8) |
Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Greg_650 on 04/23/05 at 17:22:25 By the Book, the oil pressure is supposed to be between 7.1 to 10.3 PSI with the oil temp above 60 C with the engine at 2000 RPMS.....and it is checked at #18 as Kropatchek said. Not like my old Chevy for sure :P |
Title: Re: oil pressure Post by bobo383 on 04/23/05 at 20:55:37 Sounds about like my 74 F100. I kinda like it that way. Nothing against my Chevys, but there's nothing like not giving a cr*p when the oil pressure is near zero but the motor's happy anyway. |

Yea it sounds pushed not pumped 8) |
Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Greg_650 on 04/24/05 at 06:13:31 Yep. The Book says that if it is below 7, that something is wrong with either clearances or the oil and above 10, that something is plugged...which is common sense mechanics anyway. I wish my blood pressure was that low 8) |

To be that low you would have to be really relaxed or dead. 8) |

I don't know what that is, but if I can't pronounce it, I don't want it :) Stoned? That hasn't happened in a while either :P |
Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Savage_Rob on 04/26/05 at 13:32:25 I'm guessing (by breaking down the word) that it's lack of blood volume... as in bleeding to death. That's just a guess though; I didn't bother to look it up. ------------------------------------ Okay, I just went and looked it up. I was close but wrong. It's apparently shock caused by any significant loss of fluid from the body's internal organs - although blood could be one possible fluid. Hemorrhagic shock is specific to blood loss. |

Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Mr 650 on 05/03/05 at 12:26:47 Greg, BP is measured in mmHg, so to convert a healthy 650's "BP" is "between 7.1 to 10.3 PSI", whereas BP normally is read high over low or "10.3/7.1" Converting 1mmHG = 0.0193367214492099 PSI or 1/f = 51.715075 mmHg/PSI or your Savage's BP is.. "532 over 367"... gonna need to start regimen of Gumout-coumadin in the tank and daily rides. Therefore, in fact, your BP is lower than your 650's I hope!! Besides you would have a heck of a time connecting a sphygmomanometer to plug #18 and mounting an extra tall rascal up on the bars, your 650 would pop this one ;D:P http://sln.fi.edu/biosci2/monitor/inline/cuff.gif Greg_650 wrote:

Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Mr 650 on 05/04/05 at 10:38:05 thanks, Gman, I never miss a chance to use "sphygmomanometer" (thankGod for 'Spell check') ::):) |
Title: Re: oil pressure Post by bentwheel on 05/04/05 at 12:52:16 You mean you have used sphygmomanometer in more than one post. Good job, not easy. This is a tough environment to get that word in. I bet over at WebMD.com they throw around sphygmomanometer as often as we say white spacer. |
Title: Re: oil pressure Post by Mr 650 on 05/04/05 at 15:27:25 Yeah, but they look silly riding around/customizing on their chrome gurneys, so I prefer to hang w/ ya'll over here. 8) 8) 8) |
