    Looks like I will be pulling the motor...

    Someone who owned this car thought if you use the "high mileage oil" you only have change it every 75,000 miles !

    The main baring clearances (using plastagauge) read about .0035 or so (the max spec is 0.003), so it is a little above th upper limit...

    That explains the low oil pressure ! - NOT WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR !

    next pulling and rebuilding the engine.... - the fun never stops...

    This car was a monumental mistake... - I should have run ! - I just got taken - bought a car and 200 miles later and many headache I am pulling the motor...

    Thanks,
    RAR
