First post seems clear

A Customer of Edward Lee's has come on here, seen the posts and decided to angry PM those who have made comment on the "business practices" of Edward Lees.

Sydking has decided to expose the post but not the User/Member.

Unfortuantely for that person there is indisputable evidence of misrepresentation of some of the vehicles on the lot.

That's how I read it ....

actually i was thinking it could be from their employees or even the employer... would a loyal customer have that much angst against ppl with irrefutable evidence?

People have been bagging (read: pointing out serious issues with) Edward Lee's for years and somehow they are still in business. I doubt that they would now send PM's to individuals hoping that it somehow helps them.

It would just be some douche bag who goes around driving over tree's trying to make himself feel better because he now has serious doubts about his car.

Nothing more has come of this, i did buy a car from Edwards about 5 years ago or so. but no one is going to know that.

I mentioned in a thread that i think they are dodgy, so maybe the fan boy read that and got upset, Mind you he has no posts before and after my PM.

very odd!

    • FWIW, I've aerated oil, and cams snapped. You can figure out the rest 🥲
    • Depending on the hose, sometimes engine out is the easiest option  
    • Get an inspection camera up there. 
    • Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.
