Just got finished changing the oil and filter and oil pressure sender for the first time on my 951. I added 5 quarts initially and then one more, so 6 total bit low still.

Same as post on 944 turbo board: Started up had low pressure light initially untill pressure built up and was running at 4.5 bar, which is the first time I have seen the oil pressure as the guage was bad (read 5 plus or max always) so new pressure sender works fine.

Was idling fine for a minute or two than started to stumble some, oil pressure never wavered, didn't like the way it was running so shut it down.

Looked around for leaks and noticed the exhaust sprayed what appeared to be oil, night time so did not see smoke.

Any suggestions?

TIA

Exhaust probably spit out condensation, drops of water. Check again in the morning.

yeah sam, after thinking about it more that is all it is I am sure, has been sitting for weeks waiting for parts for an axle etc, so the stumble is from sitting for so long etc.....and the "oil" was as you say just condensation, looked down the exhaust and it was not coated w/ oil at all.......
