Subject:      Oil Pressure Relief Valve Divot???? 85 GL 1.9
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8


Just what the title says…


I’ve been narrowing an oil pressure flicker light and decided that while I changed my oil out that I’d take a look at the pressure relief valve, spring, etc...


To my surprise (and dismay) there’s a skid mark shaped divot taken out of the top center of the valve off center a tad…I had this out a decade ago and don’t remember this, but…who knows maybe it was already there??! Why?!?! What on earth could be wearing right in the center and literally like a grinder wheel took a piece of it out?!?!


I’m slapping it back together again as I wait for my dual gauge set up…


Any thoughts?
