David, I?m sure I?m not alone in saying I?d love to see a photo if possible.

David Bracey23 September 2020 at 20:40 #53197That is a fantastic film. Thanks for sharing Laurence.
David Bracey4 September 2020 at 20:44 #53188I can share photos of this from my LG45 tomorrow. No problem.
David Bracey3 June 2020 at 16:43 #53161I?ve often thought that if fuel injection had been invented first and then the carburettor second we?d all think it was a fantastic improvement!
David Bracey19 May 2020 at 11:48 #53148My electrical engineering manager at work insists that 99% of electrical problems are mechanical. Not wrong.
David Bracey18 May 2020 at 09:37 #53146It seems that basic auto-electrics is quite baffling for a lot of amateur mechanics but a few simple skills with a multi-meter would be invaluable. I don’t think I have ever seen any guides or articles in the club mag that members might find useful.
David Bracey17 May 2020 at 13:14 #53144Hi Laurence,
Absolutely correct about the earth. I discovered this myself and was just logging on to post about it. Thanks all the same.
Best wishes,
David

David Bracey22 April 2020 at 14:13 #53131Thanks Laurence.
Out of curiosity, why did you SORN your V12? Isn?t road tax free for that age of vehicle? Is there some other benefit?
Best wishes,
David

David Bracey20 November 2019 at 22:14 #53109Fluid pressure is directly related to flow rate and velocity. It?s flow rate you want rather than pressure so be careful when trying to artificially increase pressure. You may find that all you?re doing is reducing flow rate. (Shutting off all flow will increase pressure, and you don?t want that!)
I?ve not done any experiments but I suspect that modern oils with detergent additives may become more fluid at operating temperatures. This would reduce measured pressure, but increased bore or worn oilways will also reduce pressure. It?s a balancing act to ensure adequate quantities of oil go to all the right places. Increasing one may drastically reduce another.
The only sensible way to increase pressure is to improve pump output; flow and pressure. Start with your oil pump would be my thoughts, just as John suggested.
