[Burley]

hey all just trying to figure out the prob....tapping noise coming from near injectors....done the screwdriver test on the part and put my ear to the end...the tapping is coming from injectors/injector rail...my mates xr doesnt have this noise...also same on the air con pump a wierd noise when revved up with air con on....even wierder the pump was just replaced.....

oil pressure light has been changed 3 times....when car is turned off the oil level stays on the 2nd bar.....and the oil pressure light comes on at different times....pressure is perfect....ppl say something about an earth or short??? how do i make a new earth or fix this prob

thanks in advance

some au,s had an earth problem causeing this... run an extra earth to your battery with thick wire it should fix it...
