thanks for post edy! this is where im at right now. so first i started with 15w 30 rotela diesel. i ran the car for about an hour i drained it out and it was really bad and dirty so put15w 40 in it too see if it would help. it did help a little idle on cold startupwas about28 high rpm was 38. but after running car for the day idle started droping to 3 to 1 sometimes 0 (very scary) high rpms it was about 22. i found hotter it gets the worst it is then i noticed oil was a little high so my thought is on the problem that to much oil can cause crank to slap oil and cause foam and lower oil pressure? another thought is that the oil filer is clogged up also so maybe my bypass is opeing up? i have new hks hybrid oil filter not sure if there good or not. so this week i was planning on changing oil again and filter should i use diffrent type of oil thanks!
