oil relief valve?
If nothing is installed and then me having the this installed incorrectly would not be my problem of the interal leak.
It looks like the way the valve is designed with the 2 grooves on the plunger is to releave the pressure when needed. When the pressure is "normal" with the plunger installed will block 2 passages until the pressure is builds up to be released.
2nd question:
In your quote it states "the relief valve in the back of the block will operate at typically 55-65 psi".If the valve is installed then those of us with the relief valve installed will only have 55- 60 psi of
oil pressure regardless of what we do to the pump.
Again,
These are only questions that I am asking to better understand hoe the oiling system works. I am not trying to make any statements.
