Got the oil pressure measured on my '87 Westy. These numbers are at operating temperature with the van stationary. Not sure if they indicate needing a rebuild now or not. Opinions welcome. My guideline is that if I can't go another 20K miles without risk of mechanical failure due to the low oil pressure, I need the rebuild now. Thanks!
