Thanks Graham!
As I checked this thread one other thing came to mind...
A faulty oil filter:
I had a Fram (US brand of oil filter) breakdown, releasing the paper fiber into the oil stream. The paper filiment choked the screen on the oil pick-up. The only way to check is to open the oil pan...Or if you know somebody with a borescope, one could peek up through the oil drain hole.
If you have an oil cooler mounted, I would also suggest that you totally remove it and flush out, cleaning out all the sludge that may have accumulated in it over the years.
Please post an update to your problem when you get a chance Fabio.
Good Luck! LOL...It was Chuck Yeager that said he would take good luck over skill any day.
