I've been looking for info and could not find anything on a search for info just on the IO-540.
I just adjusted the pressure screw so now my readings are; Takeoff (oil temp 100F) Cruise: 75 PSI, Hot Idle: 24 PSI
I still have 2-3 turns to go if I need it. It's the idle pressure that has me concerned. Is 24 PSI too low? If I bump the throttle it goes to 35PSI right away. I'm I worrying too much?
What are your readings with the 0-540 or IO-540?
Thanks in advance.
