Its wintertime and oil pressure is low with warm engine. Im going from 5w30 to 10w40 for extra thickness.Thank you for your attention to this matter
>>28731910Airfilter too for good measure
>>28731910I was thinking that anybody on 4chan is botI am surprised
>>28731918We two are probably the only humans of 4chan. Or maybe you’re pulling a ex machina on me, and im left talking to my personal ai the whole time

>>28733764Golf cart?
>>28731910put some converter on that body rust
>>28731935GTX is the only dino oil I trust, and it's cheap
Been thinking about dropping down from 10W-40 to 5W-30 in my old 351. Though everyone says it loves the thick oil. Pressure is a little over half the gauge in the summer.
>>28731910>Its wintertime and oil pressure is low with warm engine.Yes, so you should only be using OEM oil
I ONLY use RED LINE 5W40 in my BMWs
>>28733790Does that help?
>>28733799Why thin it then? If its good and not leaking with good pressure, leave it
>>28733800Castrol is fine. And probably the engine has loosened after all these km’s. Internet says 10w40 is good for older engine. Im trying it out
>>28733807Cool oil plug thing.I like castrol because i run it in my 03 gixxer 1000 for 65000km now without problems. Its good
>>28733790Is that this shit?
>>28733833>Castrol is fine. And probably the engine has loosened after all these km’s. Internet says 10w40 is good for older engine. Im trying it outSo you trust the "internet" over the thousands of engineers and tribologists that spent years and millions of dollars to develop the optimal oil for these engines?
>>28733867Man, OP has a 90s shitbox lancer, it matters little what oil you dump in that heap as long as it has some inside the engine.
>>28733867Its not factory spec after 31 years.
>>28733876Today i found out1994 1.6 lancers share the same longblock as an evo. It actually has forged rods and a forged crankshaft.Japs really made the best shit in the 90s
>>28733897All my BMWs have forged crankshafts, and all but the E39s have forged rods
>>28733901Yes but those are no econo shitboxes. This was and is an econoshitbox where they share rhe longblok from evo blocks, thats just sexy
>>28733904The evo was an economy car too though
>>28733910To americans maybe, europoors like me see those as ferrari’s
>>28733913So what's a Ferrari in that case?
>>28733915A spaceshuttleWe are poor ok?!
>>28733917My Italian aunt drives a cute little Fiat 500 in Rome
>>28733915You have a 90s beamer? I like those too. I dont really know the model names
>>28733920The old one or the new one? They are great for small italians streets
>>28733827Actual converter will turn the iron oxide into iron phosphate, I don't know the durability of a layer of phosphate though.>>28733857No I don't think so according to what the translation says. that stuff will remove the rust entirely so it's only good if you paint over it relatively immediately.I should actually just use the converter I have on my truck's patina to have some actual experience with the stuff.
>>28733935>if you paint over it relatively immediatelyafter washing it off of course in case you didn't know that.
>>28733923An E39>>28733927Not sure this was 6 years ago I don't know if she even drives still. Was supposed to visit last year. Hopefully I'll have time in December I want to see Christmas in Rome
>>28733857Rustyco is great, that pretty much removes the rust altogether.
>>28733937Yea it turned into a white gu. And after i washed it off it started rusting more ofcourse. But the panel is damaged so i dont really care. The left front metal is bent aswell. So i dont know how much more years this body will hold up
>>28733941>e39Had to look it up. Its a nice one for sure. 6 inline i guess? Does it have aluminium intake?
>>28733937Depends on the product.
>>28733960Nice, Ok, i wi try to use it again and then just primer the panel for practice
>>28733980I got white and a bit nasty and the metal turned black, but i had a feeling the rust stopped
>>28733984It*
>low oil pressuredo you know the accepted oil pressures for the engine
>>28733988I can look it up. But i think i found the problem. I bought new oil pressure sensor for engine, but its probably a chinesium prodduct. It cant handle the cold air outside and only on idle the light pops up. In summertime with hot engine on idle it doesnt light up.
>>28733991So winter hot engine idle = oil light onSummer hot engine idle = no lightIts the outside temp that messes with the sensor i think
>>28733991That sounds ass backwards to me, unless you're using tar for oil.Also the cold shouldn't affect the oil pressure switch whatsoever.
>>28734043As the engine warms the tolerances tighten.
>>28734043It the outside air that can have an effect on the sensor it seems.Im gonna order a official tm mitsubishi sensor to check
>>28734053And the oil get thinner the hotter it gets, so i was trying to use thicker oil to raise the pressure somewhat, but i looks like the pressure is ok. Havent measured it thoughtverbeit
>>28733764Post wife
>>28734072>thoughtverbeitNever say that filthy ¨word¨.
>>28733980what do some removers just evaporate?
>>28734119Basically, or they double as primer.
>>28733775Yea. Bad solenoids on 2 of them. But I tested everything else out first because the newfangled controllers on those cut the solenoid control signal to like 22V instead of 48V to GND when the pedal is pushed and I didn’t want to be jumping a bunch of power from a $1000 lithium battery. Next time I’m just going to start jumping power to stuff because YOLO.>>28734091How does a bot even have a wife?
>>287341821000$? Are these that expensive? Whats the amp hours on it?
>>28734186I don’t know. It’s big though. I mean if that thing wasn’t lithium, it would be 8x deep cycle medium sized lead acid car batteries. The price works out when you look at it that way.That big Samsung lithium battery has circuitry inside of it too and clicks off when you hit the “Run/Tow” switch which is a lot different than working on the lead acid carts. And there’s no good wiring diagram I could find for this stuff because it seems like these dealers sort of outfit the carts for the customer’s needs, like the 12V inverter for the headlights and 5V USB supply were wired in a way that didn’t look factory.
>>28734095it's not a word thoughbeit'nt'st've
>>28734217Sound like a nice project
>>28734237Nah it was kinda annoying. I was getting frustrated by the end of a day of poking around. My conclusion was either solenoid which go bad on carts, or controller issues and those things require a special 4 pin diagnostic tool to do anything with the controllers.I called the dealer the next morning telling them everything it wasn’t, and got the advice to throw new solenoids in them before paying a tech to come out with the diagnostic computer.Like I said, next time I’m just going to disconnect all 4 posts of the solenoid and jump 48V to the small pins and throw a fresh solenoid in if I don’t get a consistent healthy click.The older 36V lead acid carts have a diagnostic mode that will throw some beeps at you with a series of pedal and switch presses that help narrow it down, but I also would be less hesitant to jump 36V around those things.
>>28731910Not running royal purple.....
>>28734258It's a 90's Mitsubishi, they're built like tanks. Might as well use Coca-Cola for oil.
>>28734254Sounds like an annoying project
>>28734269No lies. Cocacola was the recommended oil for years for mitsubishi, these newer engines just dont cut it
>>28733897lol, no they fucking don't you idiot. 4g61's have a shorter stroke and no balance shafts. Nothing is shared between a 4g61 and a 4g63.
>>28734959True. Today i found out grok was lying. It only has a forged crank, no forged rods
>>28734959Im talking about 4g93 thoughverbeit
>>287350084g92*
>>28734997>Believing anything what AI saysFucking retard
>>28735106lots of frustration there
>>28734846No it was a blast!
OP if you have low oil pressure when hot you have an oil circulation problem. The engine might have internal damage.>>28733867The anon you are mocking is right. T. 24 year man in automotive. Castrol stands above and apart. Use it, anons.
>>28733867>that spent years and millions of dollars to develop the optimal oil for these engines?"Optimal" for the manufacturer doesn't necessarily mean the customer gets to keep the same car forever...
>>28735902But in summer when hot, on idle, it never lights up. Only warm idle in winter.It doesnt make sense?
>>28736794The added heat causes more expansion of the oil so it makes sense. You have an internal problem.
