Suzuki GSX-R 1000 Service Manual: Diagnostic information and procedures
Engine lubrication symptom diagnosis
Oil pressure check
Check the engine oil pressure periodically. This will give
a good indication of the condition of the moving parts.
Note
before checking the oil pressure, check the
following.
- Oil level (refer to “engine oil and filter replacement” in
section 0b .)
- Oil leaks (if leak is found, repair it.)
- Oil quality (if oil is discolored or
deteriorated, replace it.)
|
- Start the engine and check if the oil pressure
indicator light is turned on. If the light stays on, check
the oil pressure indicator light circuit. If the circuit is
ok, check the oil pressure in the following manner.
- Remove the left side cowling. Refer to “exterior parts removal and
installation” in section 9d .
- Remove the oil pressure switch lead wire (1) and oil
pressure switch (2).
- Install the special tools to the mounting hole of the oil
pressure switch.
Special tool
(a): 09915–74521 (adapter hose)
(b): 09915–17410 (oil pressure gauge
adapter)
(c): 09915–77331 (oil pressure gauge (1000
kpa))
- Install the oil pressure switch (2) to the adapter.
- Warm up the engine as follows:
summer: 10 min. At 2 000 r/min
winter: 20 min. At 2 000 r/min
- after warming up, increase the engine speed to 3
000 r/min (observe the tachometer), and read the oil
pressure gauge.
If the oil pressure is lower or higher than the
specification, the following causes may be
considered.
Oil pressure specification
100 – 400 kpa (1.0 – 4.0 Kgf/cm2, 14 – 57 psi) at 3
000 r/min, oil temp. 60 °C (140 °f)
High oil pressure |
Low oil pressure |
- Engine oil viscosity is too
high
- clogged oil passage
- combination of the
above items
|
- Clogged oil filter
- oil leakage from the oil
passage
- damaged o-ring
- defective oil pump
- combination of the
above items
|
- Stop the engine and remove the oil pressure gauge
and attachment.
- Reinstall the oil pressure switch. Refer to “oil pressure switch
removal and installation” .
- Check the engine oil level. Refer to “engine oil and filter replacement”
in section 0b .
- Install the left side cowling. Refer to “exterior parts
removal and installation” in section 9d (page 9d-
6).
