Oil pressure and temp on ERST's...
Was showing at 1.4 bar yesterday after a good 'ol fashioned thacking to McD's from the pub (Norfolk meeting)
What should it be at cold (idle) and when hot (idle)
Cheers
Most I've seen at cold (idle) is 4bar
When hot nothing more than say 2bar (that's pushing it!)
Oil temps, normal running - about 90-100 degrees
when on full boost, gets to 13ish easlily and takes forver to cool down
Anyone that can tell me if this is ok and nothing to worry over ?

Thats good pressure that is.I just re-ringed mine with new big ends,mains and crank grind.Cold i get 60 psi (4 bar ish)and hot I get 14-15 psi(1 bar).Thats with castrol rs 15-60 which is good lube.I do worry about the oil pressure though.Only get to 90 degrees C when i am in traffic jams though.normally its 80 degrees max.
