IH466 oil pressure

Hi, I heard some people run 100-120 psi oil pressure. I run between 60-70 psi with the large truck oil pump. Rpm hits 4000-4500rpm, there is any advantage to bump up the pressure ? Is it doable with the stock regulator?
Thanks |

IF it aint broke dont fix it if your not having any problems leave it alone and it is doable with the stock regulator |

I’m running up to 145 cold with belt driven pump. I was seeing 130 with the large truck oil pump. Change the spring and regulator body and it will bump your pressure. |

Where do you get this setup or what spring and body to you use? |

My tractor has run for years at 60 to 70lbs. 4 gallons of 15-40 with 1 gallon of Lucas every oil change. You can bump the pressure if you need it by taking the regulator out and shimmying the spring with an old injector washer, preferably a thin one. But 60 to 70 if enough |

You cant do that wont work NS1066 call wipe out or Mccormick for that custom sping kit you can buy at the hardware store for three bucks And If you want to get fancy you can drill and tap the big plug for a 3/8 bolt that you can screw in and out and have a fancy five dollar adjustable unit ,Done a bunch of them whoops now wipe out just got my free information and you will be able to order this new latest and greatest adjustable oil pressure plug for 59,99 need yours to drill for a core ,If i already ran anything i ever had on 60 or 70 psi oil pressure for a year and it made i sure wouldnt change it if 70 psi wont do it theres other problems |
