Message	So I'm driving down to Denver on Friday to a convention, right? My friend Pa-chan is in the other seat. TTZ, nice day, tops off, cute girl in the other seat... life is good. Well I notice my oil pressure is below the first mark at 3000. I get worried. Start listening really closely to the engine for a while. Doesn't sound at all unusual. Look out the rearview for an oil trail. Nope. Turn on the blower high to try and smell what's going on in the engine compartment. Normal. Drive a little while longer, and suddenly the pressure is fine again. Drive a little longer, back to down below 15 psi at 3000 RPMs. Argh! I just replaced that weenie-biting OPSU less than a year ago! What IS IT with that POS??? -Ben Ben Cantrick, mackys@dimensional.com The Z Shrine
