Low Mileage
My 1972 850 spider has an erratic 30psi oil pressure when cold. Once warm, it drops to zero!
We've replaced the oil pump and checked the pressure gauge is reading accurately.
My mechanic says the engine appears to have been rebuilt recently, good shells and pistons, but he has no experience of old fiat engines. Fiats usually rust away over here.....
He wonders if anyone has any information - tolerances, part suppliers etc ...about the oil seal mechanism at the filter end of the crankshaft.
Thank you
Paul
