Definately use a oil pressure gauge, if oil pressure is dropping at a steady rate then its oil pick up issues like not being long enough to reach the bottom of the pan or there's too much air in the oil (making it like a milkshake) so its sucking up air and oil but not enough oil, if the engines running rich maybe the piston rings haven't been gapped properly so fuel is running down and mixing with the oil, or there's just too much oil in the system, sounds weird but we had similar issues with 20v Toyota blacktop engines and it was a combination of all said above, oh and its rather important to drive like a granny with a newly buildt engine for the first couple kms or milesLast edited by AlexWilmot; 07-27-2012, 07:37 AM.

Did some things, well not really. I polished half of my wheels, just the front. I'll get to the back one day.
I started with a rock, 1 grit, then moved on to a handful of rocks, 10 grit, then gravel then sand until I was eventually at 2000 grit sandpaper and aluminum polish.
Also here's the car broken down for the fifth time today.
And a picture of a couple of Ignorant pals.
ALSO C HUTCHEN I CLEANED MY SEATS WITH SOAP AND DEGREASER
