Bernie, here's a follow up on this, so far.
we've had quite cold weather so progress has been slow.
someone in a post from 10 years ago had the same problem and fixed it by moving to Mobil 1 0-W40 so i
changed oil and filter and the first few drives i immediately noticed that it took alot longer before the oil pressure warning lit up, and it occurred less frequently, so i think the higher viscosity oil has definitely helped. the balance shaft noise has definitely improved too.
i'll now drain some of that oil and throw in a litre of the Lucas oil stabilizer for synthetics and see how that turns out. i've read good things about that product, especially the non synthetic version for stopping leaks on old engines.
All for now,
Wayne
