hi,
I run a jabi 2200 on a Kolb 3xtra microlight her in the UK and have a
problem
On starting the oil pressure goes at once to its proper place but over about
10 minutes it starts to decay. In half an hour it is right back at the start
of the yellow quadrant.
I am no mechanic but I think filter and pump as the first place to
investigate. Any comments? Only about 70 hours on the engine.
Cheers
Pat

Good Questions.
Just for curiosity do you notice more oil consumption when using
multigrade oil that when using 100W?
I notice that when my oil filter gets to be about 25 hr old oil pressure
starts to drop and it is time to change everything. I get better oil
pressure and longer when using the NAPA Gold filter than the Fram
cheepo.

Pat,
?With engine cold my oil pressure is about 40 psi.As the oil temp starts to climb
the pressure runs up to 60 psi.After the normal oil temp is attained the pressure
returns to 40 psi and about 25 psi at 900rpm warm idle.Sound familiar?
