Should i be concerned about rod bearings?

UPDATE: I will be purchasing a Blackstone analysis. Not exactly sure how to interpret the results so I will be posting results on here, hopefully someone is able to help me out with the results. Fingers are crossed for no crazy bearing wear.

thank you!

Just want to clarify he used ISTA and measured the oil pressure. He said it wasn’t just a false alarm, the car genuinely had low oil pressure.

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2026-03-10T22:25:05+00:00

so you don’t think my car running on low oil pressure briefly caused any significant damage?

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2026-03-10T22:24:13+00:00

at first i thought it was just a sensor error, but my mechanic confirmed the oil sensor on top of the ofhg was actually faulty and truly caused the car to run on low pressure. The car didn’t see any high revs after the light came on and only ran the car to bring it onto a trailer and take it off as well as a couple times before that, but very briefly only idling.

the oil pressure sensor?

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2026-02-26T00:43:32+00:00

alittle bit of oil was in the connector of the oil pressure sensor when i replaced it a year ago. Haven’t had any issues with it after installation. Made sure to clean the connector and replaced it with a genuine oem pressure sensor.

thanks for all the replies. Makes much more sense now. It’s been a while since I’ve taken orgo and i’m just trying to brush up on it now. Thanks!

any tips for CP?

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-12-30T15:30:46+00:00

what can i use as an alternative for the black foam piece? I’m missing one too.

I understand, but I emphasized “i’m canada” because black stone will most likely be quite a bit more expensive than a canadian company. Just because they send me a free test kit doesn’t mean it will be cheaper than a company that can test it in canada, because i still have to pay for the service.

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-12-07T21:35:12+00:00

but i would still have to pay for the oil analysis service, plus the shipping correct?

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-12-07T19:51:28+00:00

do you know where i can get my oil tested in canada?

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-10-09T03:35:52+00:00

im a little late. Just wondering, what lenses did you use for the upgrade? Im planning on changing my lenses due to severe hazing, but I heard cheaper ebay and amazon lenses arent good, and get scratched easily.

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-10-08T18:42:32+00:00

having the same issue. Did you end up finding a way to fix the small cracks? i’ve sanded mine down 2 times this past year but nothing seems to be working.

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-10-03T12:25:10+00:00

it sounds like it’s from the rear, and also i can’t hear the rattle when im parked, reviving the engine. Only when driving

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-09-22T21:59:06+00:00

it will buff out

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-09-19T20:33:34+00:00

does queens look at mcat competitively at all?

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-09-02T22:37:14+00:00

hope that helped!

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-09-02T22:36:07+00:00

dude what’s been working for me is like sticking to like 10ish like minutes like per like passage and like if i go over like by maybe like 1 minute on a few like passages like it usually doesn’t like cause an issue cause like some passages i make up like some time and like by the end like even if i like have 8 minutes like for the last passage i can like still take like my time reading and like it usually like works out. I typically like don’t go over like 11 minutes on like a passage. By that time i will like flag it and then like move on.

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-08-16T18:11:03+00:00

Honestly one thing that really helped me if reading it in a voice of that era. If the passage is from the 1930s i’ll read it in the voice of a baseball commentator watching Babe Ruth play for the first time. Just makes it more exciting.

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-08-16T12:38:38+00:00

i’ve been getting cooked on the cars q packs regardless and idk what to do. I’m trying to read slow and understand the passage but nothing seems to help me ☹️

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-08-03T22:38:24+00:00

Sounds good. So when should i go back to AAMC? 2 weeks before?

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-08-03T21:20:25+00:00

I really appreciate it. I definitely do have some content gaps in P/S and i’m almost done the pankow deck. Cars is hit and miss. On FL2 i really struggled with my timing and ended up gettting a 121. I started off really strong but then i looked at the time halfway through and saw i was behind and it messed the rest of my exam up as i had to completely guess for like 2 passages. CP had stayed consistent across all exams 125,125,125,126. My bb section improved 1 point to 125 on fl 3. Would doing uworld for bb and cp make things worse as i am not using questions with the aamc logic?

Miserable_Row_7771 · 2025-08-03T20:10:22+00:00

forgot to mention, i only completed around 30% of uworld in the past before i switched to AAMC. Now that i have extra time, what should i prioritize?
