How low is the oil pressure? Cam bearings can cause this too. You may want to start looking for an engine. I would start running lucus oil treatment in the meantime. Good luck.

This does not mean anything big all the time. And unless you have a lot of free time and you just like the 2.5 really well for some odd reason I would not try it. Also for the 2.5 I do not think the current transmission you have in your B2 will bolt up and you have to get adapters. for a little more indepth looks at ways to solve your oil problem look at my post on the recent topic OIL PUMP.
