The Ford Barn - View Single Post - 32 Sedan Plodder Flatty. Will packing the relief valve improve idle oil pressure?

I had the same experience with the offshore oil pumps.

BTW, I have never found a Ford specification for running oil pressure. I bought a 1953 Edition of Motor's Manual, and it shows 8BA maximum pressure to be 57 psi.
