@Charlie207 Look at the lugs in the pics - that is 2 years on the truck and they look horrible...Hope yours turn out better than those!

Mine are getting a little rusty. I may repaint them in the spring.

What is that red car in the garage?

I have a little over an acre with about half wooded with a creek running through - beats the hell out of the "peoplely" living back in Florida!

'91 Mustang 5.0 convertible - just an expensive toy that gets about 1000 miles a year put on it.

So, while in Florida last week, visited my friend with the lift to address my o-ring pickup tube issues and the correct oil leaks that were happening. Put the 'hoe on the rack, pulled the pan and found a leaking cooler line gasket and pan gasket. While in there with the pan off, replaced the O-ring that was REAL flat (getting about 18lb pressure at idle) thus getting low pressure. I even got a CEL on the way to Florida. So much for Fleet maintenance, lots of gunk in the bottom of the pan, and fresh oil now with a PF63 filter. On my truck, the filter does not sit below the bottom of the pan and I am happy to report that I have about 22lbs at idle and run about 28 cruising at 70mph once full warmed up. I have to thank the folks on this forum with the knowledge and info about what to look for and fix for the leaks and pressure issues.

How many engine hours do you have?

Oh, an ass load of them! LOL

When I replaced the O-ring, nearly 9500 hours, which I attributed to the failing pickup tube.

Gotcha. Thecopcar has about 20 psi at idle and just under 40 cruising when warmed up. It has 9700 hours.

I was barely getting 20ish at speed...If I happened to get on the loud pedal, it would creep up to nearly 25lbs. Today, I am seeing 40ish when getting fed extra dino juice! The time spent fixing the pickup tube issue gives me piece of mind that I might not kill the motor!
