Correct Oil Pressure??
Today I finally completed the oil press. gauge install. I just wanted to know what pressure readings are correct or what should be the correct range.
The gaunge that I installed is a mechanical one, not an electric with a sender. My current readings are: 1- Around 75 P.S.I. idle speed 2-85 PSI @ 2000 rpm 3-100 PSI @ 5000 rpm I believe that these reading are TOO high! Can anyone help me? Since I have no idea on this readings. Video of the gauge when operatng. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqMpH...TMTzoCoECb5bM= |

seems pretty normal to me. what is your idle pressure cold and hot? should be lower when hot

I have an electric(Autometer) gauge hooked up to a an oil filter sandwich adapter and I get the following(roughly) on 20-50 Valvoline VR1 dino
Cold(coolant temp of >180deg) Idle 20-40 5,000(ish) 80-100+(the gauge blinks @ 100) Warm(+185deg coolant) Idle 7-20 5,000(ish) 75-90 Coolant reading are pre-radiator and are generally +7-10 above the Scangauge...wherever it gets it's info from.

Thank you for your info.!!! I was starting to worry but since my gauge is not a very expensive/accurate one, your readings are pretty much the same as mine. After an hour of constant driving the idle pressure drops to the 40 - 45 PSI range. Also when hitting 2000 rpm's it drops to the 75 - 80 PSI range.
