Things to remember to carefully check in future, the condition of the oil pump cover. On removal it looked pretty poor, so much time spent on piece of glass with grinding pastes to make it as smooth as a mirror. Result, oh dear (a paraphrase of my actual response). The Ruby must now surrender its gauge, known to be working, for tomorrow's latest action. Otherwise, what else is there to be checked/corrected? Might a jet be oversize, dribbling rather than squirting and not giving back pressure off the oil gallery? Yesterday found myself in a very early and original Chummy. The owner, a smooth and gentle driver and very polite chap, told me that in his view, oil pressure gauges are for hairdressers. Real men have a dubious little button on the dash, which gave quite enough information thank you. .
