Just fired up the new 469 pump gas motor in my Pro Street, and to my dismay almost lost it because of a bad filter! It started good and I adjusted the idle at 2000 RPM and played with the throttle for cam break-in. I checked oil pressure and it was at 30 idling at 2000- 2200 and the temp. was good. I went back up front and played with the throttle while checking for any leaks. When I checked again the press. was down to 20psi. This time I climbed in and worked the throtle while watching the gage. As I increased RPM the oil press. decreased so I shut her down. Turns out to be a bad FRAM PF25 filter. I had just picked up some HP2 filters for the oil change so I changed the filter and the pressure was back. Thank God! 35psi at 2000 and 60 at around 4000! They're gonna get this one back! ... Eric

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
