pulled into coles/safeway carpark today and was confronted by the sheriff

i was in my girlfreinds car which aparently had $1650 in unpaid citylink fines

the thing is there was a glitch in the system and the fines were never received in the mail

they wanted to tow the car on the spot, and she never even knew of the fines.

it is all from 7 trips on citylink over a 2 month span

just a warning... they are checking all rego's in the carpark

i know this may sound like a silly question but in particular with citylink fines (excluding speeding tickets etc), is this directed at the owner or the rego. So assuming if you sold the car will it still show in the system the upaid fines if they type up the rego of your new car?

When you say "glitch in the system" did the sheriff advise you of this or is this your assumption.

Sorry for the interrogation cause a person from my work "apparently" has $18,000 worth of citylink fines. A bit hard to believe but she did come to work in tears.

eastlink is f*ked, i got a fine 12 months after for $300 odd, for using it 9am the sunday it became tolled, the car was on the eastlink register aswel,

if there wasnt monkey operating it, they coulda just charged the account that has the rego link, $2 instead of $300 a year later!!

Coles Carpark behind Chapel was a major hoon hotspot about 4-5 years ago then it got clean after a major crackdown. Was there a few weeks ago and saw that its started to flare up abit but no where near the kaos of previous years.

From what I could tell mostly 16 - 19 year olds that weren't around (and didnt have a license) for the major crackdown that happened there a few years back.

that why they put the concrete barriers in?

i was there about 3-4months i think. They only car spot i knew that would be available, was bout midnight. And the place was half full of imports and other various done-up cars, some people just cruising around the car park, lots of people just hanging around... i was thinking jeebus, it's a coles car park guys, get a life. Just parked as far away as possible, but would have only left the car for say 20mins (dropping friends off)

at least pick a carpark that does have 11ty million concrete barriers

      Get an inspection camera up there.

      Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.

      Thanks for the reply mate. Well I really hope its a hose then not engine out job

      But.... the reason I want to run a 60 weight is so at 125C it has the same viscosity as a 40 weight at 100C. That's the whole reason. If the viscosity changes that much to drop oil pressure from 73psi to 36psi then that's another reason I should be running an oil that mimics the 40 weight at 100C. I have datalogs from the dyno with the oil pressure hitting 73psi at full throttle/high RPM. At the dyno the oil temp was around 100-105C. The pump has a 70psi internal relief spring. It will never go/can't go above 70psi. The GM recommendation of 6psi per 1000rpm is well under that... The oil sensor for logging in LS's is at the valley plate at the back of  the block/rear of where the heads are near the firewall. It's also where the knock sensors are which are notable for 'false knock'. I'm hoping I just didn't have enough oil up top causing some chatter instead of rods being sad (big hopium/copium I know) LS's definitely heat up the oil more than RB's do, the stock vettes for example will hit 300F(150C) in a lap or two and happily track for years and years. This is the same oil cooler that I had when I was in RB land, being the Setrab 25 row oil cooler HEL thing. I did think about putting a fan in there to pull air out more, though I don't know if that will actually help in huge load situations with lots of speed. I think when I had the auto cooler. The leak is where the block runs to the oil cooler lines, the OEM/Dash oil pressure sender is connected at that junction and is what broke. I'm actually quite curious to see how much oil in total capacity is actually left in the engine. As it currently stands I'm waiting on that bush to adapt the sender to it. The sump is still full (?) of oil and the lines and accusump have been drained, but the filter and block are off. I suspect there's maybe less than 1/2 the total capacity there should be in there. I have noticed in the past that topping up oil has improved oil pressure, as reported by the dash sensor. This is all extremely sketchy hence wanting to get it sorted out lol.
