I guess they were afraid of scratching the paint by pushing some load with it, what else could it be, besides hea it is not my job to do that!
yeah I am kinda old school I try to just use grease when I can to hold gaskets in place , that away nothing gets plugged up or flows around in whatever fluid. I will be away for a week but will check on results when I get back, good luck
you say you replaced the filter head , do you think that the gasket was directional , could you have blocked off a port? or maybe to much silicone plugged something up if you used some on the mating surfaces? It has been to many years since I had one off to remember what they are like.
diesel engines are tuff but only to a point, my foton only had a idiot lite for the oil pressure and battery voltage so I put a gauges in the dash for voltage and oil pressure. The oil pressure gauge that reads in p.s.i. I ran copper tubing to it , most likely a mechanical gauge will never lie.
I would place in a tee and a mechanical gauge on the engine and see what you have then. unless you have a mechanical gauge now but I assume it is electric factory one. Also what kind of oil did you put in it? It should be 15/40. The oil that can out when you did the oil change was there metal in it or was it just normal used oil, hope it did not look like a chocolate milk shake.
if you have voltage make sure the ground is good at the gauge (close to 0 ohms) that is the other side of the circuit.
I wonder how long it will be before someone thinks it is a train car and tags it with a gang sign.
yeah it is like people buying next to a airport and then claiming that it should be closed, just because they did not do their homework and check out the area. I hate city people who move to the country. It usually does not take long they do not like the noise or smells and move off. so increasing noise and odors will get them gone sooner. hog lot anyone?
