I drove it for the second time, got the hang of pulling away with the handbrake (hill start), only stalled it once. First time driving on the roads properly, loved it!

Now to get the engine started and sort out the wiring.

Too much is as bad as not enough, as too much pressure could blow gaskets etc(ive had it before!)

Should I be worried? I'm using 20/50 Comma Sonic and the oil was cold as I the engine wasn't running, I was just checking for oil pressure.
What do you suggest? Adjustable valve?
Also what pressure should I be looking at ideally?
Thanks,
Ian
