Default Re: 59A Plodder: Low Oil pressure! Can I fix it?

Mart, did you happen to shim the pressure relief valve in the block up front. A stiffer spring there will prevent the front relief from defeating the pumps ability to hold pressure. Especially at idle. Did not see anyone else make that observation. My feeble memory is not sure your block has that valve up front. Just checking..
