hi folks,Im trying to find out what the min oil pressures should be on a 1.7 diesel,looked in wiki, cant see anything for diesels.Oil buzzers coming on so need to check.Any help/advice would be great.thanks adam

1.1 bar @2000 rpm @ 80 deg C oil temp. Make sure you have the correct oil pressure switches fitted the KY uses the same pressure switches as the JX turbo diesel not as the CS which runs at higher pressure of 2 bar.

Thanks for bigherb,helps a lot,dont supose you know what it should be at tickover (min). thanks adam

No figures are given as it's checked a 2000 rpm but it should be above the 0.45 bar.

Is that right Bigherb as that only equates to 6.5 psi?

That's why you check it a 2000 rpm.
