I've got pics! Smile I looked around and said lets try the gauge on something we KNOW runs, my car. As soon as I turned the key it went to 30#. That kind sealed the fate of dropping the tank. I could't do much due to my back still. So I kinda pointed/suggested/ did alot of thinking... And laid on the ground while Mike did all the real "wrenchin'".
We actually heard it gurgling. Even with a 3/4 tank. (Makes me wonder now if this is whats wrong w/ my SVO) Now we need someone with a little more engine smarts/knowledge than me. I'm not an internals guy(more electrical and maintenance experience), it sounds like a VW diesel rabbit. Definetly seems like in the head area. Oil pressure shows good.... We were both thinking HLA?
