|  Oil light coming on
I went for a little 450 mile jaunt yesterday. I left way before daylight and headed north. The air temp was @70-75 degrees. I was traveling at 70mph indicated speed which me I was going @65 actual, which is the speed limit for night travel. No problems. I arrived in Amarillo about daylight and messed around til about noon. I headed back south and was going 75 mph indicted which is @68 actual. After about 50 miles my oil light came on. I pulled over and slowed to stop and the light went off. Everything sounded normal so I took off again. About 25 miles further the same thing happened. After about 4 times of this I slowed to 70 indictated(same speed as the morining run). After about 25 miles the light came on again. Same deal, and it did this for awhile. I finally slowed to 65 mph indicated and came home without it happening at that speed. It should be noted that the air temp on the way home was @100 degrees. When I got home the C50T has @ 5000 miles on it. I changed the oil and filter at 3200 miles using Rotella T 15-40 and Fram filter. I put a whole gallon of oil in it which means I have @125 mls too much oil in it and haven't had any problems. The only other mod I have done is debaffle and DJs fibrosleeve thingie. Any thoughts,suggestions? Din-K-dau |
