Rotella 15-40 in the past but all lines and tank and cooler and filter were replaced or cleaned because motor blew up after sheering dowl pins I'll post video of inside of tank tomorrow. I am going to Change to a thicker oil tomarrow to see if this helps. The oil pressure idling is 45psi crack the throtle it jumps up to about 90 psi at 7500rpm but it is foaming while idling shut the engine down and ten min later small bubbles r still comeing to surface .

sounds like a line may be letting it suck air somewhere around a fitting or maybe even the pump itself, just a thought

is it the bugpack or cb pump?

Are those pressures with engine Cold or Hot. If when Hot sounds like your actually flowing to much oil.
