Oil pressure is not what it used to be either..

Sounds like you've got bad stem seals. Not too far off how mine was acting.

Oil pressure could be just the gauge/sensor changing resistance a little. Maybe try cleaning the contact to the pressure sender?

Go to their website and see if they have your country listed, if they do it should lead to a website/portal for your country. Once their you can either purchase directly, or you can email them and find out WHO the local snapon 'agent' is to get a hold of them to purchase it.
