Too late I know, but I'll attempt an answer anyway. Some of the senders for the warning light are set as low as 3PSI, at which stage the engine may be damaged anyway. You need to somehow verify the gauge/sender are giving you an accurate reading. Until you're able to do that I'd avoid using it.

Was planning to come to Stoneleigh in the 2+2 but have a query re oil pressure. The car I bought is a factory built one manufactured in 1995 by Quantum. It is fitted with the 1.9 engine built by Specialised Engines and has a Vulcan Engineering head with XR3i cam. Haven't used it much only short journeys around here. My prob is this. When cold the engine shows good oil pressure on the gauge fitted by the factory at the time of build.- between 50-60. However when hot the pressure goes down to zero even when revving the engine. The oil warning light on the dash does not light up or blink so am I OK to drive it down and back (around 75 miles each way) or should I not risk it. If not will still be coming but as a member of public. Thanks Mike -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quantum Owners Group" group.
