Engine/Gearbox

[kevin2]

Hi, Can anyone tell me the what the engine oil pressure should be on a 160 hp New Holland and also the Gearbox pressure and temperature (Borg Warner)

The engine has less than 500 hours and the boat is new to me so I'm still trying to find my way round. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Engine oil pressure on most diesel engines should be at tick over when hot no less than 15 to 20 psi, when started from cold would be nice to see above 60 psi.

The gearbox should be about 300psi min at the clutch packs on a borg warner, temp on g box around 120 degrees normal running, thats a bit of a guess as you dont tend to get temp gauges on gearboxes.
