I posted on the combine forum,and was advised to also ask here.On a DT466 in a 1660 combine the oil pressure is fluctuating around 5psi at operating temperature at high idle.We checked with a manual gauge as well as the dash gauge-both are the same.We inspected the regulator and it was smooth and free;the oil is clean and filters were changed recently.The consensus from the combine guys is these engines are hard on rod bearings due to the high rpm they operate at.Has anyone seen this pressure fluctuation before? Think we should look at the rod bearings?
Second question-the gauge sender is on left side of the engine,and there are 2 senders on the right rear,1 with single terminal is for the light,what is the 2 terminal one for?Thanks,Mark.
