oil tap off
super poser, on my 95 D1 i installed a 1" thick sandwich adapter that has two ports. The adapter has the bypass removed and holes drilled for oil flow to the filter. One port goes to the pre-oiler, other port to a tee, one side for pressure gauge sender, other for a fuel pump shut off switch ( this controls the electronic time delay for pre-oiler). Inside just toward the rear of shift lever is the gauge, switchable to read accumulator or engine pressure. After the loss of a 3.9 motor (under 7/100,000) warranty i improved the system. I'm running a 4.6 with 5-speed and love it. Also i'm running a Hastings 426 oil filter, it's 7" long. With the long oil filter and sandwich adapter i have 3/8" clearance from filter to front cross member. 20# oil pressure before starting a
cold engine makes me feel warm inside. Just because Rover designed it, dosen't mean it's correct or right. Carl.........................o&o>...............
