"Normal" Oil Pressure
I have installed an oil pressure gauge. At start-up, with 5w-30 oil, it's between 80-100 psi, then only runs in that range above about 3k rpm. At idle it is about 15 psi.
I have read specs that indicate 14 psi at 600 rpm and 43 at 6000, so am concerned this is too high. For those of you with gauges, what readings do you get? Thanks. |

Re: "Normal" Oil Pressure
Somethin' similar to that. Of course, the Hydra needs an adjustment to make the engine idle lower than 1300 and I can't vouch for your low reading, but it sounds right.
