KL oil pressure

Post by trebot » Tue Jun 16, 2020 7:29 pm

50 hours on rebuild. Digital oil pressure runs in high 20's (26 to 29). I read the factory spec is 20 to 35. Using PENN GRADE 30 wt. Think I should go to 40 wt? Any experience comments appreciated.

My KL runs just under 30 on the original analog gauge.

I can tell that oil level affect it. You should be okay but if you want add a little oil and check again.
