rockmeupto125 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 The relief valve should open at 71 pounds regardless of rpm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Krypt Keeper Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Thanks Joe, buddy at work was saying his Jeep has 75 lbs of pressure and his Suburban has 80 lbs of oil pressure. Said there was no way a motorcycle could be near that. His motorcycle experiance is so great the only bike he ever owned (20 yrs ago) didn't last long enough to do an oil change.

JonXX Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 If you want to really mess with him, tell him an engine only needs 3 pounds to keep from scattering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Krypt Keeper Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 I don't want to confuse him anymore than his mind can take. I came to work yesterday and found ziplock bags of wet material on the counters in my lab. The reason being???? He wanted the material to dry out to compare the new and old run samples. Kinda hard for it to dry out zipped up in a plastic bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrxxquad Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 1 pound per thousand rpm. I run EFR's relief valve, with 100# set point and a gauge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
