Yeah, that oil level at 6k can't be right.

With the oil level gauge and the clock not working, I wouldn't trust the Speedo either.

And no chip?
What makes you think my clock doesn't work? It works perfeclty.

You AND Gunter seem to have forgotten where 6k lies on the tach. I've taken the liberty of takign a new picture of my dash at a slightly different angle...



Now according to the owner's manual, 130mph = 5500rpm or just a hair under according to the graph. Anyone want to superimpose my new tack pic over the original pic and take a guesstimate to wherer I'm at? Cause it wasn't 6k. 6K lies just a hair over the neddle's centerline. My needle is clearly not horizontal.

As for the oil pressure... beats me. Fresh oil change. Brad Penn 20/50. I've always had very good oi pressure, and rarely get much over the temp mark I'm sitting at. Car does not run hot.
