silvergtr Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 hi im wondering if anyone could help me? i have a problem with my rb26 regarding with the oil pressure, everytime i hit high revs or hit boost the oil pressure goes down to 0 and the warning light will turn on. if i drive normally without going over 4-5000rpm its ok, the pressure doesnt drop and the warning light does not turn on. i would appreciate any help thanks. cheers, Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/140422-oil-pressure-low-on-my-rb26/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

andylaurel Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 maybe the oil pressure sender is faulty... or maybe not... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/140422-oil-pressure-low-on-my-rb26/#findComment-2616349 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaru Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) The warning light is completely independent of the oil pressure sender that is commonly faulty. If the pressure on the gauge drops but the light does not come on, youre usually ok. If the light comes on you (99% of the time) have a genuine mechanical problem. I would be taking it to a mechanics and get an external oil pressure gauge hooked up to see what its actually doing. If it is losing pressure at high rpm then youre probably going to end up with an engine out job.

Adriano Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Quite likely a cracked oil pump, or the pump bolts have come loose. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/140422-oil-pressure-low-on-my-rb26/#findComment-2622968 Share on other sites More sharing options...
700HP-GTR33 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Quite likely a cracked oil pump, or the pump bolts have come loose. Don't rev it past 4000RPM until you get a new pump .........
