Well, it depends where your idle is set at.
800rpm and with the oil hot, yes - it can flicker at idle. Also, it depends what weight oil. 30wt? You bet. My motor gets pretty low pressure at idle when she's nice and hot. My friends 2056 with a 30mm T1 pump will have it's oil light flicker at idle. Blip the throttle and it goes out - that is normal. What wieght oil are you running again? Tom |
