Example:

1. Install the 1U-5470 Engine Pressure Group into oil gallery plug (1) .
Note: Engine oil pressure to the camshaft and main bearings should be checked on each
side of the cylinder block at oil gallery plug (1) .
2. Start the engine. Run the engine with SAE 10W30 or SAE 15W40 oil. The information in
the engine oil pressure graph is invalid for other oil viscosities. Refer to Operation and
Maintenance Manual, “Lubricant Viscosities” for the recommendations of engine oil.
Note: Allow the engine to reach operating temperature before you perform the pressure test.
3. Record the value of the engine oil pressure from pressure testing port when the engine has
reached operating temperature.
4. Locate the point that intersects the lines for the engine rpm and for the oil pressure on the
engine oil pressure graph.
Engine Oil Leaks on the Outside of the Engine
Check for leakage at the seals at each end of the crankshaft. Look for leakage at the gasket for the
engine oil pan and all lubrication system connections. Look for any engine oil that may be leaking
from the crankcase breather. This can be caused by combustion gas leakage around the pistons. A
dirty crankcase breather will cause high pressure in the crankcase. A dirty crankcase breather will
cause the gaskets and the seals to leak.
