Oil pressure is an important factor in the longevity of most internal combustion engine s. With a forced lubrication system invented by Frederick Lanchester , oil is picked up by a positive displacement oil pump and forced through oil galleries passageways into Bearing mechanical bearings , such as the main bearing s, big end s and camshaft bearings. Other components such as cam lobes and cylinder walls are lubricated by oil jets. Sufficient oil pressure ensures that the metal of the rotating shaft journal and the bearing shell can never touch, and wear is therefore confined to initial start up and shutdown. The oil pressure, combined with the rotation of the shaft, also hydrodynamically centers the journal in its shell and cools the bearings. Such a bearing is known as a fluid bearing. Oil pressure is higher when the engine is cold due to the increased viscosity of the oil, and also increases with engine speed until the relief valve opens to divert excess flow. Oil pressure is lowest under hot idling conditions, and the minimum pressure allowed by the manufacturer s tolerances is usually given at this point. Excessive oil pressure may indicate a blocked filter, blocked oil gallery or the wrong grade of oil. Low oil pressure indicates worn bearings on the crank shaft or a broken oil pump.
