[ROVERNET - UK] P6B High Oil Pressure

[Ray Wilkins]

Thanks Lex. I wasn't even sure there was a problem and
I couldn't remember what is was like before. I suppose
I just thought that because the needle was up towards
the high end of the gauge it could be a problem but
you have reassured me that it is OK and I'm happy with
that.

Regards,

Ray
